1 Workspot Configuration Guide for the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Workspot, Inc. 1/27/2015

2 Cisco ASA and Workspot Overview The Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) provides organizations with secure, high performance connectivity and protects critical assets for maximum productivity. Once the Cisco ASA is installed, Workspot can be quickly and easily implemented as no additional on-premise hardware or software required. The Workspot Client connects to the Cisco ASA using the Clientless SSL VPN feature. For more information on the Cisco ASA, go to: The Workspot Client runs on mobile devices; Workspot Control, a corresponding cloudbased administration console is used to manage configuration and policies for the environment. For more information on Workspot, go to: Products and Versions Tested The information and screens in this guide are based on the following: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance 5510 Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 9.2 Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager Version 6.2(5) Prerequisites and Configuration Notes The following are general prerequisites for this guide: The Cisco ASA must be running version 8.0 or later, and should be installed and configured for network connectivity and basic operations, including an AAA Server Group with an authentication server such as Microsoft Active Directory (AD). AnyConnect Apex Licenses o One Apex license for each Workspot user. Apex licenses are based on the number of users regardless of how often they connect or how many devices they use. Contact Cisco or your reseller for more information on Apex license requirements. o If the ASA currently has AnyConnect Plus licenses, Cisco provides trial Apex licenses for one month with the ability to renew for an additional month. See the Cisco Self-Service Trial licenses section for more information. o When using older Cisco ASA models (prior to Apex licensing), AnyConnect Premium licenses are required. All ASA models include two Premium licenses (supporting two concurrent users) that can be used for testing if the ASA is not configured for Cisco Essentials. pg. 1 of 16

3 Cisco ASDM administrator access to the ASA. DNS names or IP addresses for internal web apps, CIFS file shares and Remote Desktop Services (RDS) servers. Configuring the Cisco ASA for Workspot includes: Creating a new Connection Profile Creating a new AAA Server Group (optional) Creating a new Group Policy enabling Clientless SSL VPN Configuring Group URL Testing the configuration through a web browser Cisco ASA Configuration for Workspot These steps outline the basic configuration of a Cisco ASA to support Workspot.

Go to Configuration > Remote Access VPN > Clientless SSL VPN Access > Connection Profiles then click Add. pg. 2 of 16

Enter a Name, then select an existing AAA Server Group, enter the DNS parameters as necessary for the network environment, then configure a new Group Policy - under Default Group Policy, click Manage. Note: If an existing AAA Server Group uses an LDAP server configured with an LDAP Attribute Map, then a new AAA Server Group with a LDAP server without the attribute map is required. See the Troubleshooting section for more information. pg. 3 of 16

9 Testing the Configuration To test the configuration, use any standard browser and go to the URL associated with the Cisco ASA, e.g. Enter your Username and Password then click Login. pg. 8 of 16

10 After a successful login, the Cisco Clientless Portal home page is shown as follows. See Troubleshooting if the Portal page is not shown. If the cifs:// option appears in the Address dropdown, then file access has been enabled. If cifs:// is not available, go back to make the changes outlined in step 5 to enable file access. Note that Web and File browsing and bookmarks are for testing purposes and are not required for Workspot. The Cisco ASA is now properly configured for Clientless SSL VPN. pg. 9 of 16

11 Configure the Cisco VPN in Workspot Control The custom URL as configured in the Cisco ASA should be entered into the Workspot Control VPN configuration by adding a new network. pg. 10 of 16

12 Troubleshooting If Cisco AnyConnect client download page (as show below) appears instead of the Cisco Clientless Portal, this may indicate that the LDAP Attribute Map is configured. Verify that Cisco Apex (shown as Premium) licenses are enabled. Enter the show run command on the Cisco ASA and check the configuration for the no anyconnectessentials command in the webvpn section. Cisco ASA Configuration webvpn enable backup enable outside no anyconnect-essentials If the no anyconnect-essentials is present; then a LDAP Attribute Map is configured in the authentication server in server group used for the Workspot Connection Profile. Create a new AAA Server Group with the same authentication settings and specify the pg. 11 of 16

13 LDAP Attribute Map to be None--. Cisco Self-Service Trial licenses Cisco provides one month trial licenses for all premium features. These licenses will have max simultaneous premium, mobile, phone and advanced endpoint assessment enabled. These licenses can be renewed once. Follow the same steps below for extending the trial for another month. These are time-based licenses so applying a new license will overwrite the original. pg. 12 of 16
