Group Policies
Configuring Group Policy Attributes for IPsec (IKEv1) Clients
Configuring Security Attributes for IPsec (IKEv1) Clients
To specify the security settings for a group, perform these steps.
Step 1
Specify whether to let users store their login passwords on the client system, using the
password-storage command with the enable keyword in group-policy configuration mode. To disable
password storage, use the password-storage command with the disable keyword.
hostname(config-group-policy)# password-storage {enable | disable}
hostname(config-group-policy)#
For security reasons, password storage is disabled by default. Enable password storage only on systems
that you know to be in secure sites.
To remove the password-storage attribute from the running configuration, enter the no form of this
command:
hostname(config-group-policy)# no password-storage
hostname(config-group-policy)#
Specifying the no form enables inheritance of a value for password-storage from another group policy.
This command does not apply to interactive hardware client authentication or individual user
authentication for hardware clients.
The following example shows how to enable password storage for the group policy named FirstGroup:
hostname(config)# group-policy FirstGroup attributes
hostname(config-group-policy)# password-storage enable
hostname(config-group-policy)#
Step 2
Specify whether to enable IP compression, which is disabled by default.
Note
hostname(config-group-policy)# ip-comp {enable | disable}
hostname(config-group-policy)#
To enable LZS IP compression, enter the ip-comp command with the enable keyword in group-policy
configuration mode. To disable IP compression, enter the ip-comp command with the disable keyword.
To remove the ip-comp attribute from the running configuration, enter the no form of this command.
This enables inheritance of a value from another group policy.
hostname(config-group-policy)# no ip-comp
hostname(config-group-policy)#
Enabling data compression might speed up data transmission rates for remote dial-in users connecting
with modems.
Caution
Data compression increases the memory requirement and CPU usage for each user session and
consequently decreases the overall throughput of the ASA. For this reason, we recommend that you
enable data compression only for remote users connecting with a modem. Design a group policy specific
to modem users, and enable compression only for them.

IP compression is not supported for IPsec IKEv2 connections.
