Cisco Cisco ASA 5555-X Adaptive Security Appliance 發佈版本通知

 lists the new features forASA Version 8.3(1).

Smart Tunnel Enhancements Logoff enhancement—Smart tunnel can now be logged off when all browser windows have 

been closed (parent affinity), or you can right click the notification icon in the system tray and 
confirm log out. 

Tunnel Policy—An administrator can dictate which connections go through the VPN gateway 
and which do not. An end user can browse the Internet directly while accessing company 
internal resources with smart tunnel if the administrator chooses.

Simplified configuration of which applications to tunnel—When a smart tunnel is required, a 
user no longer needs to configure a list of processes that can access smart tunnel and in turn 
access certain web pages. An “enable smart tunnel” check box for either a bookmark or 
standalone application allows for an easier configuration process.

Group policy home page—Using a check box in ASDM, administrators can now specify their 
home page in group policy in order to connect via smart tunnel.

The following commands were introduced: smart-tunnel network, smart-tunnel 
tunnel-policy.

Newly Supported Platforms 
for Browser-based VPN

Release 8.3(1) provides browser-based (clientless) VPN access from the following newly 
supported platforms:

Windows 7 x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit) via Internet Explorer 8.x and Firefox 3.x

Windows Vista x64 via Internet Explorer 7.x/8.x, or Firefox 3.x.

Windows XP x64 via Internet Explorer 6.x/7.x/8.x and Firefox 3.x

Mac OS 10.6.x 32- and 64-bit via Safari 4.x and Firefox 3.x.

Firefox 2.x is likely to work, although we no longer test it.

Release 8.3(1) introduces browser-based support for 64-bit applications on Mac OS 10.5.

Release 8.3(1) now supports smart tunnel access on all 32-bit and 64-bit Windows OSs 
supported for browser-based VPN access, Mac OS 10.5 running on an Intel processor only, and 
Mac OS 10.6.x. The adaptive security appliance does not support port forwarding on 64-bit 
OSs.

Browser-based VPN access does not support Web Folders on Windows 7, Vista, and Internet 
Explorer 8. 

An ActiveX version of the RDP plug-in is not available for 64-bit browsers.

Windows 2000 and Mac OS X 10.4 are no longer supported for browser-based access.
