LDAP Lookup account in RAVPN

[dmccrackcisco]

Hi,

I need to change the password for the account used to do LDAP lookups in my remote access VPN ASA using ASDM.  How much time do I have in between the time I change the password and when it is applied.  During this time, will anyone who is currently connected be disconnected and will anyone connecting during this change be denied?

Thanks!

You can change the password on the account, and change the ASA configuration straight after you change the password.

For those who are already connected via VPN, they will not be affected. For those who are trying to connect at the same time will be affected while password is being changed.

However, as soon as the password is changed on your account, you can change the ASA configuration to reflect the new password and tested the account via the ASA test tool to make sure that the new password is authenticating correctly, and that should be all.

Hope that makes sense.
