How many interfaces does an ASA have?
The ASA has two interfaces: inside and outside. Imagine the outside interface is connected to the Internet where a remote user wants to connect to the ASA. On the inside we find R1, I will only use this router so the remote user has something to connect to on the inside network. Let’s look at the configuration!
What is VPN_POLICY?
The group policy is called VPN_POLICY and it’s an internal group policy which means it is created locally on the ASA. You can also specify an external group policy on a RADIUS server. I added some attributes, for example a DNS server and an idle timeout (15 minutes). Split tunneling is optional but I added it to show you how to use it, it refers to the access-list we created earlier.
