Enable the WebVPN HTTPS Server
As stated previously, WebVPN uses an internal HTTPS server on an ASA 55X0 Security
Appliance. This HTTPS server acts as the portal home page for WebVPN. To enable the
HTTPS server, the http server enable command is used.
Step 2: Access WebVPN Configuration Mode
To make changes to the WebVPN global configuration, the WebVPN subcommand mode
(WebVPN mode) must be accessed. Configuration of proxy services, AAA authentication
servers, policies, and the portal home page are all done through the WebVPN mode.
NOTE WebVPN requires cookies to be enabled on the end user’s browser. If cookies are
disabled, the end user will be forced to open a new window each time a link from the home
page is accessed. This will cause the end user to log in each time a new window is open.
