Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
Chapter67 Configuring Connection Profiles, Group Policies, and Users
Configuring User Attributes
The following example shows how to allow a maximum of 4 simultaneous logins for the user named
anyuser:
hostname(config)# username anyuser attributes
hostname(config-username)# vpn-simultaneous-logins 4
hostname(config-username)#
Configuring the Idle Timeout
Specify the idle timeout period in minutes, or enter none to disable the idle timeout. If there is no
communication activity on the connection in this period, the ASA terminates the connection. You can
optionally set the alert interval, or leave the default of one minute.
The range is 1 through 35791394 minutes. The default is 30 minutes. To allow an unlimited timeout
period, and thus prevent inheriting a timeout value, enter the vpn-idle-timeout command with the none
keyword. To remove the attribute from the running configuration, enter the no form of this command.
hostname(config-username)# vpn-idle-timeout {minutes | none} alert-interval {minutes}
hostname(config-username)# no vpn-idle-timeout alert-interval
hostname(config-username)# vpn-idle-timeout alert-interval none
The following example shows how to set a VPN idle timeout of 15 minutes and alert interval of 3 minutes
for the user named anyuser:
hostname(config)# username anyuser attributes
hostname(config-username)# vpn-idle-timeout 30 alert-interval 3
hostname(config-username)#
Configuring the Maximum Connect Time
Specify the maximum user connection time in minutes, or enter none to allow unlimited connection time
and prevent inheriting a value for this attribute. At the end of this period of time, the ASA terminates the
connection. You can optionally set the alert interval, or leave the default of one minute.
The range is 1 through 35791394 minutes. There is no default timeout. To allow an unlimited timeout
period, and thus prevent inheriting a timeout value, enter the vpn-session-timeout command with the
none keyword. To remove the attribute from the running configuration, enter the no form of this
command.
hostname(config-username)# vpn-session-timeout {minutes | none} alert-interval {minutes}
hostname(config-username)# no vpn-session-timeout alert-interval
hostname(config-username)#
The following example shows how to set a VPN session timeout of 180 minutes for the user named
anyuser:
hostname(config)# username anyuser attributes
hostname(config-username)# vpn-session-timeout 180 alert-interval {minutes}
hostname(config-username)#
Applying an ACL Filter
Specify the name of a previously-configured, user-specific ACL to use as a filter for VPN connections.
To disallow an access list and prevent inheriting an access list from the group policy, enter the vpn-filter
command with the none keyword. To remove the ACL, including a null value created by issuing the
vpn-filter none command, enter the no form of this command. The no option allows inheritance of a
value from the group policy. There are no default behaviors or values for this command.
