Cisco ASA 5500 Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
Chapter74 Configuring Clientless SSL VPN
Translating the Language of User Messages
Prerequisites
For the customization object to call these translation tables correctly, the tables must have been
previously imported using the same names. These names must be compatible with language options of
the browser.
Detailed Steps
Command Function
Step1 export webvpn customization template
Example:
hostname# export webvpn customization template
tftp://209.165.200.225/sales
Exports a customization template to a URL where
you can edit it.
Exports the template and creates the copy sales at
the URL specified.
Step2 Edit the customization template and reference the
previously-imported translation table
Example:
<localization>
<languages>en,ja,zh,ru,ua</languages>
<default-language>en</default-language>
</localization>
Example:
<auth-page>
....
<language-selector>
<mode>enable</mode>
<title l10n="yes">Language:</title>
<language>
<code>en</code>
<text>English</text>
</language>
<language>
<code>es-us</code>
<text>Spanish</text>
</language>
</language-selector>
Two areas of XML code in the customization
template pertain to translation tables.
Specifies the translation table to use.
The <languages> tag in the XML code is
followed by the names of the translation tables.
In this example, they are en, ja, zh, ru, and ua.
The <default-language> tag specifies the
language that the remote user first encounters
when connecting to the ASA. In the example
code above, the language is English.
Note Figure 74-19 shows the Language Selector
that displays on the logon page. The
Language Selector gives the remote user
establishing an SSL VPN connection the
ability to choose a language.
Affects the display of the Language Selector and
includes the <language selector> tag and the
associated <language> tags that enable and
customize the Language Selector:
The <language-selector> group of tags includes
the <mode> tag that enables and disables the
displaying of the Language Selector and the
<title> tag that specifies the title of the
drop-down box listing the languages.
The <language> group of tags includes the
<code> and <text> tags that map the language
name displayed in the Language Selector
drop-down box to a specific translation table.
