AnyConnect SBL is to allow users to connect to the VPN before signing into their Laptop/Desktop. This is useful for companies that want all of their Laptops to use Active Directory to sign into the laptop but need a secure way to reach the AD Server.

Start Vpn Before User Logon To Computer

• Must be using the AnyConnect client and the user must be using a Windows 7 or XP machine. This does not work with 8+ from what I have tested.

1. Create the default configuration for the AnyConnect VPN.
   Note: If you plan on using a Self Signed Certificate the FQDN must be the IP of the firewall or the customer must setup a DNS entry for the FQDN.
2. Upload the SBL.xml page to the firewall.
   The key thing to change is the value between the <UseStartBeforeLogon> to true. If you are currently using a xml profile, you can also edit this line, or add, for this configuration to work.
3. Add the SBL.xml file to the webvpn settings.

   ASA 8.x Code webvpn svc profiles SBL disk0:/SBL.xml ASA 9.x Code webvpn anyconnect profiles SignOn disk0:/SBL.xml

4. Add this profile along with the vpngina module to that group-policy that you applied to your AnyConnect VPN tunnel-group.

   ASA 8.x Code webvpn svc profiles value SignOn webvpn anyconnect profiles value SBL

5. Connect to the VPN as a new session to make sure that your new profile gets pushed from the Firewall.
6. If you used an Authorized Certificate – proceed to step 8, otherwise, follow step 9 for Self Signed Certificates

7. Self Signed Certificate steps

   1. Go to https://<Firewall IP>
   2. Click on the Lock icon in the URL. Click more information then click view certificate.
   3. Go to the details tab and click export. Save it as a X.509 certificate with chain (PEM) (*.crt,*.pem).
   4. Run Microsoft Management Console, by entering “mmc” in the run or search box (requires administrator permissions).
   5. In the MMC utility go to file and click on add/remove snap-in.
   6. You will want to add the certificates snap, and set it to computer then local computer.
   7. Open trusted root certificates and right click on certificates and click import.
   8. Locate the file you saved earlier, then import that file.
   9. Save the configuration. The name doesn’t matter.
8. Reboot the machine. Once rebooted you can click on switch users and see the following icon:
   
9. Use this button to login to the VPN before logging into the OS.

Anyconnect Sbl Windows 10

• Cisco AnyConnect (VPN) – Start Before Logon (SBL) As of July 2020, Start Before Logon (SBL) support has been added to Cisco AnyConnect VPN. This service will allow users to log into Deakin computers, where they have not logged in before, while the computer is off campus.
• SSO with AnyConnect and Start Before Logon Hello, is it possible to configure my ASA 5512 and AnyConnect Client to have a SSO with SBL, so i only have to login to the AnyConnect and Windows gets the credentials by AnyConnect?

To Connect Before Logon:

1. You may have to click Switch User from the Logon screen to navigate to the User screen. Click Network Logon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

I also looked at Cisco AnyConnect which seems it would of done it if the client was XP, but it's Win 7and that version gives you the option to login to the computer or login to the VPN using the Start Before Login feature. When predeploying AnyConnect, the Start Before Logon module requires that the core client software is installed first. If you are predeploying AnyConnect Core and the Start Before Logon components using MSI files, you must get the order right.

2. If you have multiple connection clients, click the iPass icon.

3. Next to Connect to Internet, click the blue arrow.

4. After the Open Mobile client opens, select a network and click Connect.

5. Enter your Account Credentials (in pre-logon mode you have to enter your credentials every time). Click Continue. If your client was configured for Single Sign-On (and is version 2.2.0 and later), you may proceed to automatically connect to your VPN (if you have Cisco AnyConnect) and then you will be automatically logged on to your computer. Otherwise, proceed to step 6.

7. Optional: For all clients earlier than 2.2.0 or 2.2.0 clients with a VPN other than Cisco AnyConnect, to connect to a VPN that has been configured for pre-logon access, repeat the above instructions, and after you click the Network Logon button, select the VPN client from the row of tiles.
