Importing Certificates for User Authentication
The SSL VPN gateway holds a CA certificate that is presented to the SSL VPN
clients when the SSL VPN clients first connect to the gateway. The purpose of this
certificate is to authenticate the server. You can use the default certificate or an
imported certificate for authentication. For information on importing the
certificates, see
Managing Certificates for Authentication, page 368
Configuring SSL VPN Users
ISA550 and ISA550W support 25 SSL VPN users. ISA570 and ISA570W support
50 SSL VPN users. To configure the users and user groups for SSL VPN access,
go to the Users > Users and Groups
page.
You can assign all SSL VPN users to one user group. However, if you have multiple
SSL VPN group policies, you can create multiple user groups and specify different
SSL VPN group policies for them. Specifying a SSL VPN group policy for a user
group can enable the SSL VPN service for all members of the user group. For
complete details, see
Configuring Users and User Groups, page 339
According to the user authentication settings specified on the security appliance,
the SSL VPN users can be authenticated by the local database or external AAA
server (such as Active Directory, LDAP, or RADIUS). For information on configuring
the user authentication settings, see
Configuring User Authentication Settings,
