Hi there,
scratching my head against this, anyone already there ? :)
ASA is the new family of security devices from cisco. They run something
simmilar to Pix OS v7.0, and can do some neat tricks, like having an IPS
(i.e. IDS new wave :) inside and terminating WEBVPNs, aka no client VPNs
where your browser does the client thing.
Now, one feature webvpn has is port-forwarding, which enables non http
apps to tunnel traffic via your browser, using a Java applet for tunnel
entry/proxy. And I can't get it to work :(
It starts, but no app shows in the table that lists what is available
for you to use.
Furthermore, if you use a domain name (instead of an IP address) in
defining an application for forwarding, you get "direct connect" to the
application without having to reconfigure local port in the client app.
I'm courious about how this works if anyone knows... it has some hosts
file rewriting maginc involved, but I was wondering if it also uses ISC
for the port mapping.
More than thankful to any light on this :)
