Configuring Remote Access VPN for an ASA

The ASASecure Firewall Cloud Native creates a Virtual Private Network by creating a secure connection across a TCP/IP network (such as the Internet) that users see as a private connection. It can create single-user-to-LAN connections and LAN-to-LAN connections.

The secure connection is called a tunnel, and the ASA uses tunneling protocols to negotiate security parameters, create and manage tunnels, encapsulate packets, transmit or receive them through the tunnel, and unencapsulate them. The ASA functions as a bidirectional tunnel endpoint: it can receive plain packets, encapsulate them, and send them to the other end of the tunnel where they are unencapsulated and sent to their final destination. It can also receive encapsulated packets, unencapsulate them, and send them to their final destination.

CDO provides an intuitive user interface for configuring a new Remote Access Virtual Private Network (RA VPN). It also allows you to quickly and easily configure RA VPN connection for multiple Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) devices onboarded in CDO.
