How to enable (and hack) Cisco AnyConnect VPN through Remote Desktop.

The client profile is an XML file that gets pushed out to the AnyConnect client every time the VPN is established.

The correct way to fix this is by configuring the Citrix VPN profile on the ASA.

Usually this is done by the ASA administrator using the Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).

If youre the ASA administrator read this article for instructions how to configure this.

But what if youre not the ASA administrator or the admin cantwont to make this change for some reason We can hack it I dont normally write blog posts like this, but I honestly cant think of a single good reason to block VPN access from a remote desktop, so I dont consider this bypassing a security setting.

Edit the tag to use AllowRemoteUsers instead of LocalUsersOnly.

Now save the profile to your Desktop or another location with a.BAK extension.

For example, if the original profile name is ContosoVPN.xml, save it as ContosoVPN.bak.

You should now have two client profile files there, for example ContosoVPN.xml and ContosoVPN.bak.

Now open Event Viewer and navigate to Applications and Services Logs Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.

Right-click that event and select Attach Task To This Event.

This task tells Windows to copy the modified.BAK profile over the.XML file that the AnyConnect client downloads from the ASA whenever acvpnui logs event ID 3021.

Be aware that if things change (ports, IPs, etc.) they will be lostoverwritten by the static BAK file.

If that happens you can simply delete the BAK file, attempt a connection, and edit the new XML file with the new settings again.
