Introduction
This document describes how to set up a Cisco IOS router to perform SSL VPN on a stick with Cisco AnyConnect VPN client using Cisco Configuration Professional (CCP). This setup applies to a specific case where the Router does not allow split tunneling, and users connect directly to the Router before they are permitted to go to the Internet. SSL VPN or WebVPN technology is supported on these IOS router platforms: 870, 1811, 1841, 2801, 2811, 2821, 2851 3725, 3745, 3825, 3845, 7200, and 7301 CCP is a GUIbased device management tool that allows you to configure Cisco IOSbased access routers, including Cisco integrated services routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, and the Cisco 7301 router. CCP is installed on a PC and simplifies router, security, unified communications, wireless, WAN, and basic LAN configuration through GUIbased, easytouse wizards. Routers that are ordered with CCP are shipped with Cisco Configuration Professional Express (CCP Express) installed in router flash memory. CCP Express is a lightweight version of CCP. You can use CCP Express to configure basic security features on the router's LAN and WAN interfaces. CCP Express is available on the router flash memory.

Configure Anyconnect VPN on IOS


In this section, you are presented with the steps necessary to configure the features described in this document. This example configuration uses the CCP Wizard to enable the operation of the Anyconnect VPN on the IOS router. Complete these steps in order to configure Anyconnect VPN on the Cisco IOS router: 1. Install and Enable the Anyconnect VPN Software on the Cisco IOS Router 2. Configure a SSL VPN Context and SSL VPN Gateway with the CCP Wizard 3. Configure the User Database for Anyconnect VPN Users 4. Configure the Resources to Expose to Users

Step 1. Install and Enable the Anyconnect VPN Software on the IOS Router
To install and enable the Anyconnect VPN software on the IOS router, complete these steps: 1. Open the CCP application, go to Configure > Security, and then click VPN. 2. Expand SSLVPN, and choose Packages.

3. In the Cisco SSLVPN client software, click Browse. The Install SSL VPN Client Package dialog box appears.

4. Specify the location of the Cisco Anyconnect VPN client image. If the Cisco Anyconnect VPN client image is in the router's flash, click the Router File System radio button dialog box, and click Browse. If the Cisco Anyconnect VPN client image is not in the router's flash, click the My Computer radio dialog box, and click Browse. The File Selection dialog box appears.

5. Select the client image that you want to install, and click OK.

6. Once you specify the location of the client image, click Install. 7. Click Yes, and then click OK. 8. Once the client image is successfully installed, you receive this message:

9. Click OK to continue.

Step 2. Configure a SSLVPN Context and SSLVPN Gateway with the CCP Wizard
Complete these steps in order to configure a SSL VPN context and SSL VPN gateway: 1. Go to Configure > Security > VPN, and then click SSL VPN. 2. Click SSL VPN Manager, and click the Create SSL VPN tab.

3. Check the Create a New SSL VPN radio button, and then click Launch the selected task. The SSL VPN Wizard dialog box appears.

4. Click Next.

5. Enter the IP Address of the new SSL VPN gateway, and enter a unique name for this SSL VPN context.

You can create different SSL VPN contexts for the same IP address (SSL VPN gateway), but each name must be unique. This example uses this IP address: https://172.16.1.1/ 6. Click Next, and continue to Step 3.

Step 3. Configure the User Database for Anyconnect VPN Users


For authentication, you can use an AAA Server, local users, or both. This configuration example uses locally created users for authentication. Complete these steps in order to configure the user database for Anyconnect VPN users: 1. After you complete Step 2, click the Locally on this router radio button located in the SSL VPN Wizard User Authentication dialog box.

This dialog box allows you to add users to the local database. 2. Click Add, and enter user information.

3. Click OK, and add additional users as necessary. 4. After you add the necessary users, click Next, and continue to Step 4.

Step 4. Configure the Anyconnect Full Tunnel


Complete these steps in order to configure the Anyconnect full tunnel and pool of ip addresses for the users: 1. As Anyconnect gives the direct access to corporate intranet resources, the URL list is not needed to configure. Click the Next button located in the Configure Intranet Websites dialog box.

2. Verify that the Enable Full Tunnel check box is checked.

3. Create a pool of IP addresses that clients of this SSL VPN context can use. The pool of addresses must correspond to addresses available and routable on your Intranet. 4. Click the ellipses (...) next to the IP Address Pool field, and choose Create a new IP Pool.

5. In the Add IP Local Pool dialog box, enter a namefor the pool (for example, new), and click Add.

6. In the Add IP address range dialog box, enter the address pool range for the Anyconnect VPN clients, and click OK. Note: Before 12.4(20)T, the IP address pool should be in a range of an interface directly connected to the router. If you want to use a different pool range, you can create a loopback address associated with your new pool to satisfy this requirement. . 7. Click OK. 8. Make sure to check the Install Full Tunnel Client check box.

9. Configure advanced tunnel options, such as split tunneling, split DNS, browser proxy settings, and DNS and WNS servers. Note: Cisco recommends you configure at least DNS and WINS servers. To configure advanced tunnel options, complete these steps: a. Click the Advanced Tunnel Options button. b. Click the DNS and WINS Servers tab, and enter the primary IP addresses for the DNS and WINS servers.

c. To configure split tunneling, click the Split Tunneling tab.

The ability to transmit both secured and unsecured traffic on the same interface is known as split tunneling. Split tunneling requires that you specify exactly which traffic is secured and what the destination of that traffic is, so that only the specified traffic enters the tunnel while the rest is transmitted unencrypted across the public network (Internet). For example, refer to ASA 8.x : Allow Split Tunneling for AnyConnect VPN Client on the ASA Configuration Example which provides stepbystep instructions on how to allow Cisco AnyConnect VPN client access to the Internet while they are tunneled into a Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) 8.0.2. 10. After you configure the necessary options, click Next. 11. Customize the SSL VPN Portal Page or select the default values. The Customize SSL VPN Portal Page allows you to customize how the SSL VPN Portal Page appears to your customers.

12. After you customize the SSL VPN portal page, click Next. 13. Click Finish.

14. Click Deliver in order to save your configuration, and then click OK. The SSL VPN Wizard submits tour commands to the router.

Note: If you receive an error message, the SSL VPN license may be incorrect. To correct a license issue, complete these steps: a. Go to Configure > Security > VPN, and then click SSL VPN. b. Click SSL VPN Manager, and then click the Edit SSL VPN tab in the right hand side.

c. Highlight your newly created context, and click the Edit button.

d. In the Maximum Number of users field, enter the correct number of users for your license. e. Click OK, and then click Deliver. Your commands are written to the configuration file.
