What is difference between auto NAT and manual NAT in Asa?
An Auto-NAT rule only uses the source address and port when matching and translating. Manual NAT can match and translate source and destination addresses and ports. In both cases, the Translated Source may be the IP of the egress interface or an object. The PAT Pool option is available when using dynamic translations.

How does a security appliance download client?
The security appliance downloads the client based on the group policy or username attributes of the user that establishes the connection. You can configure the security appliance to automatically download the client, or you can configure it to prompt the remote user about whether to download the client. In the latter case, if the user does not respond, you can configure the security appliance to either download the client after a timeout period or present the login page.
Why assign a completely different pool of IP addresses to the VPN Client?
Note: In order to avoid an overlap of IP addresses in the network , assign a completely different pool of IP addresses to the VPN Client (for example, 10.x.x.x , 172.16.x.x, and 192.168.x.x). This IP addressing scheme is helpful in order to troubleshoot your network.

Introduction
This document describes how to configure the Cisco 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) to act as a remote VPN server using the Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM) or CLI and NAT the Inbound VPN Client traffic.
Prerequisites
This document assumes that the ASA is fully operational and configured to allow the Cisco ASDM or CLI to make configuration changes. The ASA is also assumed to be configured for Outbound NAT. Refer to Allow Inside Hosts Access to Outside Networks with the use of PAT for more information on how to configure Outbound NAT.
Background Information
Remote access configurations provide secure remote access for Cisco VPN clients, such as mobile users. A remote access VPN lets remote users securely access centralized network resources. The Cisco VPN Client complies with the IPSec protocol and is specifically designed to work with the security appliance.
Configurations
Complete these steps in order to configure the Cisco ASA as a remote VPN server with ASDM:
Verify
Attempt to connect to the Cisco ASA through the Cisco VPN Client in order to verify that the ASA is successfully configured.
Troubleshoot
This section provides information you can use to troubleshoot your configuration.
