Apple iPhone 2.x and 3.x VPN Connectivity to
Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA)

  • Use the macOS or iOS Native IPSec VPN Client Apple iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch) and macOS 10.6 and higher devices include a native Cisco IPSec VPN client. You can use this client to make an IPSec VPN connection to a Firebox.
  • Three days ago, Cisco has released the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for the iPhone (iOS 4), but what is it? The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client provides remote users with secure VPN connections to the Cisco ASA 5500 Series using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol and the Datagram TLS (DTLS) protocol.
  • Cisco supports the AnyConnect version that is currently available in the app store; however, fixes and enhancements are provided only in the most recently released version. Step 1 Download the Cisco AnyConnect App from the App Store.

Beginning with the iPhone 2.0 software (available July 2008), Apple offers an advanced VPN connectivity option for communicating with Cisco security appliances, including the ASA 5500 Series and the PIX Firewall. While Apple still supports access using L2TP/IPSec, end users attain superior connectivity by selecting Apple's new IPSec option on their iPhone.

New VPN features include, but are not limited to, certificate support and numerous centrally-pushed policies, such as backup server support, banners, and VPN load balancing.

Where do I find information on how to configure this client?

    1. Find the Cisco AnyConnect in the iTunes App Store or open the iTunes App Store on your device and search using keywords: 'cisco anyconnect.' This link might work: //apps.apple.com/us/app/cisco-anyconnect/id1135064690

    2. Click 'Free' (or the download icon) and then 'Install' to download the app.
    3. Click 'Open' to open the app on your device.
    4. After installing, a pop-up will appear that says 'AnyConnect' Would Like to Send You Notifications.
    5. It is your preference if you would like Notifications or not. Choose Don't Allow or Allow to continue.


    Configuring for University use

    1. Tap 'Connections' and then 'Add VPN Connection...' to add a new connection profile.
    2. Enter the following VPN settings:
      • Description: TechServices VPN
      • Server address: vpn.illinois.edu
    3. Tap Save.

    Starting the software

    After you've completed installing and configuring the Cisco AnyConnect VPN app, a new AnyConnect icon will be available on your screen (it will be in the first open spot after the home screen).

    1. Click the icon to launch it.
