Description

The Cisco ASA adaptive security appliance supports site-to-site IP Security (IPsec) VPN deployments, which can be used to protect traffic between remote and central sites. Basic deployments of site-to-site IPsec VPNs use pre-shared keys (PSKs) for authentication, which is recommended for smaller deployments. This course demonstrates how to configure, verify, and troubleshoot basic site-to-site IPsec VPNs.
The Cisco ASA adaptive security appliance supports certificate-based authentication in site-to-site VPNs, together with rich public key infrastructure (PKI) integration options. You can use certificates to provide secure and scalable authentication among multiple sites in large site-to-site IPsec VPNs. How to enroll the Cisco ASA security appliance into a PKI and how to enable certificate-based authentication for site-to-site IPsec VPNs is also covered in the course.
