7. (Optional) Allowing Access to Public Servers Behind the ASA

The Public Server pane automatically configures the security policy to make an inside server accessible from the Internet. As a business 
owner, you might have internal network services, such as a web and FTP server, that need to be available to an outside user. You can 
place these services on a separate network behind the ASA, called a demilitarized zone (DMZ). By placing the public servers on the 
DMZ, any attacks launched against the public servers do not affect your inside networks.

Step 1

In the main ASDM window, choose 

Configuration

 > 

Firewall

 >

 Public Servers

. The Public Server pane appears.

Step 2

Click 

Add

, then enter the public server settings in the Add Public Server dialog box. (For information about any field, click 

Help

.)

Step 3

Click 

OK

. The server appears in the list.

Step 4

Click 

Apply

 to submit the configuration to the ASA.

8. (Optional) Running VPN Wizards

You can configure VPN using the following wizards:

Site-to-Site VPN Wizard—Creates an IPsec site-to-site tunnel between two ASAs.

AnyConnect VPN Wizard—Configures SSL VPN remote access for the Cisco AnyConnect VPN client. AnyConnect provides secure 
SSL connections to the ASA for remote users with full VPN tunneling to corporate resources. The ASA policy can be configured to 
download the AnyConnect Client to remote users when they initially connect via a browser. With AnyConnect 3.0 and later, the 
client can run either the SSL or IPSec IKEv2 VPN protocol. 

Clientless SSL VPN Wizard—Configures clientless SSL VPN remote access for a browser. Clientless, browser-based SSL VPN lets 
users establish a secure, remote-access VPN tunnel to the ASA using a web browser. After authentication, users access a portal page 
and can access specific, supported internal resources. The network administrator provides access to resources by users on a group 
basis. ACLs can be applied to restrict or allow access to specific corporate resources.

IPsec (IKEv1) Remote Access VPN Wizard—Configures IPsec VPN remote access for the Cisco IPsec client.

Step 1

In the main ASDM window, choose 

Wizards

 > 

VPN Wizards

, then choose one of the following:

Site-to-Site VPN Wizard

AnyConnect VPN Wizard

Clientless VPN Wizard

IPsec (IKEv1) Remote Access VPN Wizard

Step 2

Follow the wizard instructions. (For information about any wizard field, click
