Recommendations for VPN authentication

So, now that Cisco has helped me get the vpn works on my ASA 5525-X I need to use an active administrator for the authentication/grouping of customers for several profiles in anyconnect.

My question is what is the simpler and more effective way of setting this up. I have a R2 2012 NAP server that is used to authenticate the AD users for access to the switches. But should I use that for ASA as well or can I use AD directly to the ASA?

A reminder to those who have not seen my posts, I'm very new to the ASA and the need to get this up and running quickly... Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Stacey

Hi Stacey,

You can use the Windows Server direct to the ASA, it uses the LDAP protocol. You will need to implement the ASA like this:

AAA-Server LDAP-SRV protocol ldap
AAA-Server LDAP-SRV (inside) host XXXXXXXXX--> IP address of the server
LDAP-base-dn DC = vpn, DC = also, DC = com--> where users are stored
LDAP-connection-dn CN = ASA-LDAP-user, CN = Users, DC = vpn, DC = also, DC = com--> the entire AD tree.
LDAP-login-password *--> the administrator password
LDAP-naming-attribute sAMAccountName
LDAP-scope subtree
microsoft server type

Now, you need to get the login DN: and the base dn. Now on the ad, you need to create several user groups and divide the users for different levels of authorization as: salespeople, employees...

You can test the authentication by using this command:

test the aaa server for authentication LDAP_SRV host XXXXXX username: password XXXXX: XXXX

and then see if it fails, then you can solve the problem

You can then configure the mapping of LDAP attributes to MAP a group of users on the server of advertising to a group policy on the SAA.

I would like to know how it works!

  • What is a VPN solution that is more stable than IPSEC VPN? What is the latest version of VPN client recommended for Windows 7 & 8 users?

    Hello

    I would like to ask a few details & concerns on our existing VPN configuration.

    1. What is the Cisco VPN client recommended for users of Windows 7 and 8? Is there an official documentation for this Cisco? We currently use customer VPN Ciso 5.0.7.

    2. we are running IPSEC VPN with only 1 gateway & only local authentication (No ACS) for our client. Recently, we have some concerns that they are the VPN connection is down. Whereas if I'm the one connected to the VPN, my connection is stable. Is there any point that we must consider up in the network. Is there a better configuration or solution that we could recommend to the customer as SSL VPN?

    3. If you want to use SSL VPN anyconnect secure mobility & we want to implement redundancy on the FW, how will the license work?

    Thank you!

    An AnyConnect-based VPN is the replacement recommended for remote IPsec VPN access. (source)

    AnyConnect can use SSL or IPsec (IKEv2) for transport.

    For an ASA redundant firewalls (running 8.3 (1) or later) any permit required AnyConnect are shared between them. that is, you just buy licenses for a member of the HA pair. (source)

  • Traffic permitted only one-way for VPN-connected computers

    Hello

    I currently have an ASA 5505.  I put up as a remote SSL VPN access. My computers can connect to the VPN very well.  They just cannot access the internal network (192.168.250.0).  They cannot ping the inside interface of the ASA, nor any of the machines.  It seems that all traffic is blocked for them.  The strange thing is that when someone is connected to the VPN, I can ping this ASA VPN connection machine and other machines inside the LAN.  It seems that the traffic allows only one way.  I messed up with ACL with nothing doesn't.  Any suggestions please?

    Hello

    No worries

    As we change the config I would do as well as possible.

    First, it is strongly recommended to use a different range of IP addresses for VPN clients and the internal network

    No VPN_Pool 192.168.250.100 - 192.168.250.101 255.255.255.0 ip local pool mask

    mask 192.168.251.100 - 192.168.251.101 255.255.255.0 IP local pool VPN_Pool

    NAT_0 ip 192.168.250.0 access list allow 255.255.255.0 192.168.251.0 255.255.255.0

    NAT (inside) 0-list of access NAT_0

    Then give it a try and it work note this post hehe

  • AAA for VPN - Kerberos, LDAP or an NT domain?

    All,

    After that a small return on what you think is the best method for AAA authentication for VPN clients when authenticating against a Windows domain for remote access?

    I have always used "NT Domain" because it seems to correspond roughly to the NT Auth I used to use on the old hubs. However, I (finally) decided to take a look at the Kerberos and LDAP, since they must have been added for a reason...

    Far as I can tell LDAP adds the ability to search a little more finely (basic DN) AD, but that's all. Am I missing something? Are there more reason to use LDAP or Kerberos domain auth?

    What is more reliable? That you guys use?

    See you soon!

    Either it is reliable, you can map users in different group policies or apply different DAP political, based on their belonging to a group. If you are basic authentication, then your method is still the best way to go.

    Thank you

  • LOCAL + RSA VPN authentication?

    Hi... we have a customer using an ASA 5520 8.2 (2) for VPN (webvpn) connections. Currently, they use the user/pass configured locally for authentication (it's a default, there is no explicit LOCAL configuration).

    They would use their RSA security device, but not for all users at once. Is it possible to use the local database and RSA as points of authentication, i.e. If there is no configured local user name, try the RSA (or vice versa)?

    Thank you

    Jim

    The ASA can do that natively the emergency authentication being quite limited on the SAA. Two possibilities are there to solve this:

    (1) use an external server which can chain these authentication stores (ACS or ISE may be used). But it is a rather expensive solution.
    (2) build more tunnel-groups with different authentication settings and ask your users to use a particular.

  • Recommendation for installation of small business

    I have a small remote site that is running two physical servers.  No server is too active and both were installed in 2002 and need to be retired.  I'll migrate physical servers and put them on VMware.  I think it makes sense to have two servers low range and replcation backward them.  I'm looking for recommendations for setting this up as economically as possible.

    On another similar site, here's what I did: have two servers, both with a quad core processor each and both with

    internal readers 10 SATA RAID. Both running ESX 3.5 Foundation. I have

    Veeam Backup and replication to replicate back between the

    two servers. That is, four total VM = will execute two on each server and

    replicate back. If a server fails, the other server will be

    Run all four VMs.  I did all of this for about $9 k.

    Is there another approach in this ball park which makes more sense?  Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Hello

    I set up an office in a box and use one of the tools of Veeam backup, vRanger connection, PhD virtual and remote to the local office backup desktop every night. This way if there is a problem all that send you them is a new box with all their data restored. Or restore you it if necessary. For only 2 virtual machines, replication between two hosts at the remote office looks like a bit more to kill.

    If the host dies you have them replicated to the local office and people can use a VPN to access the data in an emergency. 1 host with a NAS for local backup also sounds pretty good.

    It's more a problem of backup/DR/business continuity and you can watch from the perspective of these tools.

  • What is the recommended for El Capitan recovery process?

    What is the recommended for El Capitan recovery process?

    I just upgraded directly from Mountain Lion, and I see that my recovery disc has disappeared.  My recovery disk wizard is only good for Lion and Mountain Lion.  I searched Apple.com and found a complicated process by which I could use the Console and create a bootdisk with the option reinstall, but I can't believe that this is the recommended option for a common user?

    So is time machine bygones?  I noticed that it is dimmed in the Menu bar?

    Certainly, you can restore El Capitan as you would with any other version of OS X - using the HD Recovery. I have no idea why your Recovery HD disappeared. Usually this would cause by user error. However, you can create a standalone install OS X on a USB FlashDrive for emergency use. This has been an option because at least Mavericks:

    Do your own installation of El Capitan using the El Capitan tool flash drive:

    You can create an installer of flash of El Capitan via the Terminal drive. El Capitan has its own manufacturer Installer integrated that you use via the Terminal:

    You'll need a freshly partitioned and formatted at least 8GBs. USB flash drive leave the name of the flash drive on the system by default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Wait as the full process that will take some time.

    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy and paste the following line in its entirety in the Terminal window.

    sudo/Applications/Install\ OS\ El\ Capitan.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia--volume/Volumes/Untitled--applicationpath X\ "/ Applications/install OS X El Capitan.app.

    Press RETURN, enter the admin password (will not resonate to the window) then press RETURN again.

    You must have setup in your Applications folder or change the paths in the command line above.

    You can do the same thing for Yosemite by making the appropriate substitute for the installer in the above command line:

    Make your own Yosemite flash Installer drive using the tool of Yosemite:

    You can create an installer of the Yosemite via the Terminal flash drive. Yosemite has its own manufacturer Installer integrated that you use via the Terminal:
