Third-party VPN client

Cisco ASA is used VPN concentrator and I published that users do not use the CIsco VPN client for instablish a tunnel VPN with the ASA instead they use third-party applications that works when you import the configuration file into it.

So my question is:

1-is there a way to prevent this to happen and restrict to use the Cisco VPN client?

2 - What are the concerns of security to use a third party application?

Kind regards

Hesham.Yousry

There is not a way to avoid this with respect to the third party IPSec client.

I don't think that there are security problems when using third party IPSec client until it establishes the secure connection.

  • Recommendations for third-party mail clients

    I recently bought a new iMac.  The upgrade of the operating system between the new and the old is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 El Capitan 10.11.x.  The mail app gives me fits and after 4 days of trying to control it, I still can't depend on to act in a coherent way.  I need to get a more reliable e-mail client.

    Does anyone have recommendations for a third-party messaging application?

    Thank you

    I used the e-mail because I bought an indigo iMac. No real issues with the exception of the years, when we had problems in recent months. IT seems to work well.

  • Router RV042 VPN Client access from Linux?

    Hello world!

    I have a question for the creators and users of RV042.

    Is there a way to communicate with a Linux box for access on a RV042 VPN client? I'm trying to do that and play with the settings, but I am not able to connect. I tried profiles in OpenVPN, OpenSwan, kVPNc and others. For the most part, my problem is that all of these software require too many parameters and other certificates that only types that you can create on a RV042 (.pem files).

    Please let me know if any of you were able to connect to a Linux box for on a RV042 VPN.

    Also, I would ask the CISCO/Linksys people why they provide only a Windows client for this option? "Small companies" are devices not windows based commercial devices!

    Thank you!

    Good day Zoli,

    Unfortunately, there is not any Quickvpn client available for Linux and Macintosh which work together with the Small Business/Small Business routers Pro.

    If I share your dismay that we do not formally use Quickvpn with all Linux distributions or any Mac OS, we have seen limited success with solutions that allow the use of third party VPN Clients when used in conjunction with our routers.

    I'm curious to know whether or not you have explored Shrew Soft VPN Client (a simple Google search will yield results). I'm currently taking a look and to experiment a little bit on my end to see if there is anything we can get to work. If you can, please let me know what you use distribution, what version and a list of all customers third-party vpn that you used.

    Personally, I'd love to see the development of a guide that we as support engineers to help all of our Linux-savvy customer.

    Thanks for your patience!

  • Third-party SSL VPN ended the DMZ ASA

    Hi all

    Any help is appreciated. Is it possible:

    I have a DMZ set in ASA 5520, and worked well so far. The DMZ subnet is 192.168.10.0/24 and IP on the DMZ interface is 192.168.10.1. Now, I'm trying to add a third-party SSL VPN device (not Cisco). The device has an IP 192.168.10.101. The SSL VPN appliance will give IP addreess SSLVPN customers in the range of 192.168.20.x. After the connection is established, the client is indeed getting the IP addr 192.168.20.x. However, clients are unable to connect to the internal LAN. If I change the IP address range clients on the same subnet that the area demilitarized, everything works. My question is that, as customers SSLVPN are complete on the demilitarized zone and get a different subnet IP address, how can I / road map these addresses before they6 can access internal network inside the interface, or it can be done at all?

    All advice is appreciated.

    You just need to add the routes appropriate on the SAA for this pool. And also on any Layer 3 routing devices inside the ASA.

For this problem, I called your service the customer more than 100 times and I visited your center customer service more than 10 times, including 7 times, they supported my phone without even looking at what the problem is all about, and 3 times, they have just updated the software of the phone and return to me , on January 15, 2016 when I presented my iphone with kamla nagar service center, they had my phone with them for a week and after a week they just gave my phone back by saying simply that there was a software problem that is updated by our care. 28 January 2016 again I need the visit to your service center of kamla nagar for the same question and they are with themselves for 2 week and after that they called and said that on device rear panel is pregnant by third party do, thereafter for 2 weeks, I presented my phone with the PSN Service Center and they said that your phone is already open by third party.

  • VPN client 3-party which connects to ASA

    Hi all

    There are some users allowed to connect via VPN using the Cisco VPN client.

    We have seen some users who connect with different clients e.g.: http://www.shrew.net/download/vpn

    I just tried it myself.

    Simply download the client, Import FCP, and connect to the ASA.

    The question is...

    The only way to prevent VPN users to connect with any client besides the Cisco VPN client is by defining the type of customer authorized to VPN on the SAA?

    The fact that anyone with a VPN profile can use another client to connect does not any security risks?

    Federico.

    Should not be a problem because it uses the same protocols IPSEC to encrypt/decrypt packets. A possibility is that if she is not comply 100% with the standard, it can could potentially cause unwanted behavior on the SAA.

  • Problems to connect via the Cisco VPN client IPSec of for RV180W small business router

    Hello

    I tried to configure my router Cisco of RV180W as a customer VPN IPSec, but have encountered a problem that I hope someone can help me with. "" I managed to do the work of configuration so that the Cisco's VPN IPSec client authenticates successfully with the XAUTH user, I put on the router, but during the negotiation, the client ends with the following, which appears several times on the router error message: ' Mar 20 Oct 19:41:53 2015 (GMT + 0000): [r1] [IKE] ERROR: local configuration for > [34360] has no config mode.

    Correct, the RV180 is not compatible with the Cisco VPN Client.  The Iphone uses the Cisco VPN Client.

    You can use the PPTP on the RV180 server to connect a PPTP Client.

    In addition, it RV180 will allow an IPsec connection to third-party customers 3.  Greenbow and Shrew Soft are 2 commonly used clients.

  • ASA VPN clients

    I couldn't find the answer to this in google.

    You have to use the anyconnect software or you can use other as openvpn client software to connect to your asa.

    If it is for home, ASAs all equipped with 2 free licenses of AnyConnect Premium.

    You can even set up a VPN SSL without client using those and does not any client software - a simple browser.

    Purchase price for a small number of licenses AnyConnect is very cheap indeed.

    You can use generic third-party clients for IPsec VPN IKEv1 (not for the SSL VPN client-oriented).

  • VPN client and Setup for the RV042

    Is there a final configuration for a small VPN using the RV042?

    Situation is 2 remote users access to a server pc not (W7P) to access the files.

    The final point doesn't have a static IP address, but I put it in a DYNDNS.org so he brings back the IP address and I can access the router at least from the outside.

    I can configure the VPN users but is there to do?

    You want to use the alternative client QVPN or advisor.

    Appreciate any feedback.

    Thank you

    Bruce,

    QuickVPN normally works well for what you want to do. Make sure that the Windows Firewall is enabled in Windows 7 and Windows Vista clients. Disable all antivirus and third-party at least firewall software until you have verified that you have a successful connection. It is very easy to implement, simply create a username and password of the router. If you encounter problems, post it here or call your local support center Small Business:

    Randall,

    TAC is more an organization of break-fix. The question that you run by being more a features/functionality with the version of the code, TAC will probably able to help.

    Your best option is to upgrade the memory and upgrade the router to 12.3 Mainline or higher.

    Let me know if it helps.

  • IPsec VPN Client - aggressive mode

    Hi all

    I just got got off the phone with the customer who underwent a check sweep of security from a third-party vendor. One of the vulnerebilities mentioned in the report is this:

    I know that only the IPsec VPN client using aggressive mode to negotiate Phase I. So my question is how to convince my customer to continue to use the IPsec VPN? Is this what can I do to reduce the risk of the use of this type of access remotely. In addition, am I saw the same problem, if I use SSL based VPN Client?

    Kind regards

    Marty

    Hello

    Ikev1 HUB in aggressive mode sends his PSK hash in the second package as well as its public DH value.

    It is indeed a weakness of slope Protocol.

    To be able to act on this, U will be on the path to capture this stream in order to the brute force of the hash [which is not obvious - but not impossible.

    This issue is seriously attenuated by activating XAUTH [authentication].

    Xauth happens after the DH, so under encryption.

    Assuming that the strong password policy is in use, it is so very very very difficult to find the right combination of username/password.

    Ikev2 is much safer in this respect and this is the right way.

    See you soon,.

  • Through a PIX VPN client

    Hello

    It seems to me having confused TAC with this question:

    I have a client who has two firewalls PIX 501. One in DC (pix - a) and one in San Diego (pix - b). They are both connected via a static IPSec VPN. Works fine, no problem. I also set up two of them to accept connections from Cisco VPN Clients for these people who are on the road a bit. It also seems to work in most situations.

    However, when you try to connect to one of these two firewalls with the Cisco VPN Client when I'm behind other PIX (resembling a third party site that is not attached to a pix - a or pix - b by all means of transport), establishes the tunnel, but I can't move the traffic to the Remote LAN. At first I thought it was due to the NAT on my home PIX (pix - c). Then, I tried to work, behind a PIX who don't use NAT (pix - d) and got the same results. I should mention that trundle making IPSec is enabled on pix - c and pix - d.

    Establishes the VPN connection very well from outside pix - c or pix - d. I can connect and ping perfectly.

    I thought this would be a simple "oh yes, this turns ' or"this is is not supported", but the TAC engineer who picked up my case does not seem to grasp the concept, nor understand how to read my .gif image of visio four firewalls PIX drawn in the exact scenario described above.

    Thank you

    evt

    What version of IOS is there on pix - a, pix - b?

    What game of transformation for vpn clients do you use?

    In all cases, you must enable NAT traversal on pix - a, pix - b.

    I tried a third-party e-mail applications such as Microsoft Outlook on my iPhone instead of Apple's Mail application. During this time, I got the "Mail" option excluded of settings > iCloud sort Mail from Apple does not check for new messages. Everything was going well until I tried to send a picture of the Photos app. Rather than create a new email in Outlook with the attached photo, I was taken in settings > Mail, Contacts, calendars and you are prompted to create a mail account.

    Am I missing a setting somewhere to inform the iPhone to use Outlook as my default e-mail client? Or you just have to give up some features if you go with a third-party e-mail client?

    I use iOS 9.2.1 on an iPhone 6.

    You cannot change the default mail app - it will always be the mail of iOS application.  However, with Outlook, simply start a new message and select the photo icon in the bar mounting options.  You may need to grant access to Outlook to your photo in the settings, but you can choose any photo from your library to send as an attachment.  Alternatively, you can link outlook to OneDrive, DropBox or other cloud services you can use and you can attach files that are stored in these.
