Cisco ASA 5508-X cannot have more than 5 sessions at any given time.

we have purchased licensing for 100 users, i've attached our running configs in the files, if anyone is able to help point us in the right direction we would greatly appreciate it.

we have upped our allocated bandwidth from 300 Mbps to 1GB in an effort to allow more users on but we're still only able to get 5 at any given time.

Hi,

Can you confirm using the output of show vpn-session license-summary if you see 100 as the installed limit?

An example of the output on ASA 5506 is as below (see red line):

ASA5506-X(config)# sh vpn-sessiondb license-summary
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
VPN Licenses and Configured Limits Summary
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

AnyConnect Essentials : DISABLED : 50 : 0 : NONE
Other VPN (Available by Default) : ENABLED : 10 : 10 : NONE
Shared License Server : DISABLED
Shared License Participant : DISABLED
AnyConnect for Mobile : ENABLED(Requires Premium or Essentials)
Advanced Endpoint Assessment : ENABLED(Requires Premium)
AnyConnect for Cisco VPN Phone : ENABLED
VPN-3DES-AES : ENABLED
VPN-DES : ENABLED
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you seeing any Syslogs when the 6th connection comes in? You might need to increase logging to debugging temporarily for this purpose. I reviewed your config and there was nothing wrong that stood out.

we do show that 100 is installed limit

Please share the output of show run vpn-sessiondb, also could you share logs when you see this issue?

Regards,

Aditya

Riverbears ITTeam · ‎03-25-2020

hello,

here is the output you requested:

Hi,

Can you send us the following when trying to connect the 6th client:

debug webvpn 255
debug webvpn anyconnect 255
DART bundle after the failed 6th connection.

Riverbears ITTeam · ‎03-25-2020

i believe that is outside of my scope of abilities or i am not familiar with how to generate and access those logs.

is there a guide that i could follow to get this log output?

Divya Nair · ‎03-25-2020

Hi,

For the debugs, you will need to login to the ASA CLI and enable the following commands just before you attempt the 6th connection:

ASA5506-X# debug webvpn anyconnect 255

ASA5506-X# debug webvpn 255

DART is essentially a diagnostics module that can be used to collate client-side logs into one location. The following link walks through the steps to set it up - https://community.cisco.com/t5/security-documents/how-to-collect-the-dart-bundle-for-anyconnect/ta-p/3156025

However, if it is easier for you, then opening a TAC case might be better so that the engineer can intiate a remote session to troubleshoot.

Aditya Ganjoo · ‎03-25-2020

That's strange. Could you bump the logging level to debug and then test the 6th connection?

Also, did you test with different usernames?

I would have asked for other debugs like debug webvpn anyconnect 255 and then test it but I am not sure about the resource usage on the Firewall.

Regards,

Aditya

Hello, I'm using AnyConnect 4.3.05017 (Windows 7) to connect to a corporate network at the moment (COVID-19...) and I'm affected by a known problem for which there is apparently no solution:

While AnyConnect is active, it is not possible to install other routes into the routing table. However, as part of my work, I need to access a VirtualBox virtual machine which is accessible through virtual network adapters. Whenever I start the virtual machine, AnyConnect removes the routing table entry. These are the event data entries:

A routing table change notification has been received. Starting automatic correction of the routing table.

Routing table - fixed - deleted route
Destination Netmask Gateway IfAddr IfName IfIndex LL Metric
192.168.66.0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.66.1 VirtualBox Host-Only Network 16 Y 1

Automatic correction of the routing table has been successful.

I understand that keeping control of the routing table is a security feature, but in this case (and several others reported on the internet) it makes it impossible for me to do my assigned work. What can be done? Is there a configuration option either on the client or server side that could be utilized to fix this misbehavior?

Aditya Ganjoo · ‎03-25-2020

Did you try using Split-Exclude Tunneling: With this method, you are telling the device to specify what traffic you aren't going to send through the tunnel?

Regards,

Aditya

HansMartinMosner74305 · ‎03-25-2020

Thank you, this is likely to be helpful!

Apparently, local LAN access is disabled in the ASA, so I cannot enable it in the client (as I'm just a developer, not network admin). But I can ask the administrators to enable that functionality according to the info at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security/asa-5500-x-series-next-generation-firewalls/70847-local-lan-pix-asa.html, this will most likely result in a working configuration.

Aditya Ganjoo · ‎03-25-2020

Sure keep us posted.

Hi,

This looks like a question for the Collaboration team at https://community.cisco.com/t5/collaboration-voice-and-video/ct-p/4691-collaboration-voice-video

This AMA is for Remote Access VPN, but folks should be able to help in the link above.
