Problem
AnyConnect, is great for users, but most of them are not used to typing full URL’s into their browsers. Modern browsers will prefix your URL with ‘http://’ for you. That’s brilliant most of the time, but AnyConnect and SSL VPN need to go to ‘https://’.
Wouldn’t it be good if your users typed vpn.petenetlive.com into their browsers, and instead of the browser ‘helpfully’ changing that to http://vpn.petenetlive.com, and it giving you an error message, the ASA redirected the traffic to https://vpn.petenetlive.com automatically?
Solution
There is just one command to do this for you, and it’s ‘http redirect outside 80‘. Below I’ve enabled it then saved the change.
