Configuring the ASA to Web-Deploy the Client

The section describes the steps to configure the ASA to web-deploy the AnyConnect client.

Prerequisites

Copy the client image package to the ASA using TFTP or another method.

Detailed Steps

Command

Purpose

Step 1

anyconnect image

filename order

Example:

hostname(config-webvpn)#anyconnect image

anyconnect-win-2.3.0254-k9.pkg 1

hostname(config-webvpn)#anyconnect image

anyconnect-macosx-i386-2.3.0254-k9.pkg 2

hostname(config-webvpn)#anyconnect image

anyconnect-linux-2.3.0254-k9.pkg 3

Identifies a file on flash as an AnyConnect client package file.

The ASA expands the file in cache memory for downloading to
remote PCs. If you have multiple clients, assign an order to the
client images with the order argument.

The ASA downloads portions of each client in the order you
specify until it matches the operating system of the remote PC.
Therefore, assign the lowest number to the image used by the
most commonly-encountered operating system.

Note

You must issue the anyconnect enable command after
configuring the AnyConnect images with the anyconnect
image xyz
command. If you do not enable the anyconnect
enable
command, AnyConnect will not operate as
expected, and show webvpn anyconnect considers the
SSL VPN client as not enabled rather than listing the
installed AnyConnect packages.

Step 2

enable

interface

Example:

hostname(config)# webvpn

hostname(config-webvpn)# enable outside

Enables SSL on an interface for clientless or AnyConnect SSL
connections.

Step 3

anyconnect enable

Without issuing this command, AnyConnect does not function as
expected, and a show webvpn anyconnect command returns that
the “SSL VPN is not enabled,” instead of listing the installed
AnyConnect packages.
