Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
Chapter74 Configuring Clientless SSL VPN
Translating the Language of User Messages
The software image package for the ASA includes a translation table template for each domain that is
part of the standard functionality. The templates for plug-ins are included with the plug-ins and define
their own translation domains.
You can export the template for a translation domain, which creates an XML file of the template at the
URL you provide. The message fields in this file are empty. You can edit the messages and import the
template to create a new translation table object that resides in flash memory.
You can also export an existing translation table. The XML file created displays the messages you edited
previously. Reimporting this XML file with the same language name creates a new version of the
translation table object, overwriting previous messages.
Some templates are static, but some change based on the configuration of the ASA. Because you can
customize the logon and logout pages, portal page, and URL bookmarks for clientless users, the ASA
generates the customization and url-list translation domain templates dynamically, and the template
automatically reflects your changes to these functional areas.
After creating translation tables, they are available to customization objects that you create and apply to
group policies or user attributes. With the exception of the AnyConnect translation domain, a translation
table has no affect, and messages are not translated on user screens until you create a customization
object, identify a translation table to use in that object, and specify that customization for the group
policy or user. Changes to the translation table for the AnyConnect domain are immediately visible to
AnyConnect client users.
Creating Translation Tables
The following procedure describes how to create translation tables:
plugin-rdp Messages for the Remote Desktop Protocol plug-in.
plugin-telnet,ssh Messages for the Telnet and SSH plug-in.
plugin-vnc Messages for the VNC plug-in.
