The Destination Network list in the Split Tunneling area may already contain
network addresses. The traffic settings you make in the Split Tunneling area
override any settings previously made for the listed networks.
The best way to determine that a Cisco IOS SSL VPN context will provide the
access that you configured for users is to configure yourself as a user, then attempt
to access all the websites and services that the context is configured to provide for
them. Use the following procedure as a guide in setting up this test.
Ensure that credentials you can use are included in all appropriate policies on the
AAA server.
If you can do so, open a Cisco SDM session to the router so that you can monitor
the Cisco IOS SSL VPN traffic that you will create. This must be done on a
separate PC if the PC you use to test the Cisco IOS SSL VPN context is not in a
network from which you can access Cisco SDM. Go to Monitor > VPN Status >
SSL VPN.
Enter the URL to each of the web portals that are configured for this Cisco IOS
SSL VPN context. Determine that each page has the appearance that you
configured for it, and that all links specified in the URL lists for the policy appear
on the page.
Test all links and services that should be available to users included in this policy.
If any of the policies that you are testing provide for downloading Cisco Secure
Desktop or the Full Tunnel client software, enter the URLs to the web portals for
those policies and click the links that will require the download of this software.
Determine that the software downloads properly and that you are able to access
the services that a user should be able to access from these links.
If you were able to establish a Cisco SDM session before you began testing, click
the branch for the context that you are testing and observe the Cisco IOS
SSL VPN traffic statistics in the Cisco IOS SSL VPN window.
Based on the results of your tests, go back to Cisco SDM if necessary and fix any
configuration problems you discovered.
