Cisco ASA VPN User Sessions

[VictorCL59]

Hello.

May be it is stupid question, but anyway.

There is "Site-to-Site VPN User Sessions limit" to every Cisco ASA description.

I am confused about it.

For example, in http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6120/prod_models_comparison.html#~tab-b

Cisco ASA 5520 has Maximum Site-to-Site and IPsec IKEv1 Client VPN User Sessions = 750.

So it is… Is it a limit for count of Site-to-Site VPN channels or it is a user sessions limit in one VPN tunnel?

To the best of my understanding, it represents the number of users that can be accommodated in a site to site vpn and the same for number of incoming vpn users.

Hi Victor,

It actually represents the maximum number of LAN-to-LAN tunnels and VPN client sessions that could be active at the same time.

So, you can have up to 750 LAN-to-LAN peers up or either a combination of IKEv1 Remote Access clients and Site-to-Site tunnels.

HTH.

Please consider the value to be potential. It will all depend on available resources, for example:

On a 5550 5000 IPSec clients over the Internet my be feasible but 5000 IPSec VPN's over leased lines may prove that the 450Mbps VPN throughput may not be sufficient.
