Cisco Anyconnect causes VMC to shut down connection

    Posted Jan 06, 2022 08:43 AM
    Hello,

    I was wondering if someone here could help me with a VPN issue I am having. Currently my network consist of a Aruba Access Point which connects to a Cisco ASA, which then connects to a cisco 9300, which is also connected to my mobility controller. My network is up and running and I am managing the Access Point just fine from the mobility controller. I can even join endpoints and they work just fine. However, whenever one of my endpoints starts a VPN using Cisco Anyconnect (built on the ASA), the mobility controller immediately ends the connection and puts the mac address of my endpoint into the blacklist. 

    Anybody know what settings I need to change in my mobility controller to stop it from blocking my VPN connection?

    Thanks,
    Matt

    There is a blacklist action that can be used in the role-based firewall. Can you check the role that your users are in? There may be a rule in that role that blacklists clients if they use the Anyconnect port (think that is 10000?). If that is, someone put that in intentionally as it is not a default setting.
