Cisco Anyconnecct Virtual Machine Allowremoteusers
I am using a Cisco VPN to connect to the office on my guest OS. I am currently using Microsoft Virtual PC to run a guest XP machine, which allows me to access my LAN and which does not route the traffic through the VPN. I am trying to migrate to VirtualBox, but I am having trouble setting up the network to do the same. Connect Cisco VIRL to The Internet AND a VMware Virtual Machine vektorprime. Anyone who talks nerd with me knows I love my subscription to Cisco VIRL. However at some point in your lab you will find that you want a Server 2012/2016 VM, or you just want some dam network connectivity in this lab.
This article provides step-by-step guide for setting Cisco Virtual Appliance on VMware - Workstation, Player or Fusion. Thanks go to the original author of the idea of copying deployed ASAv files from vSphere datastore to a local host.Prerequisites:a) 5.x with the following components. Server. Server. or vSphere Client for Windows or Linuxb) or orc) Virtual Appliance - asav922.ova1.
Deploy ASAv with vSphere Clienta) File- Deploy OVF Template- select path to ovf templateb) Select configuration (1. Space engineers steam key global. VCPU standalone) and Thin Provision.c) Configure Network Cards.d) Power on ASAv virtual machine.When OVF XMML parsing is finished, ASAv reboots. After boot, installation is finished and you can power off a virtual machine.2. Copy ASAv files from Datastore to Local HostClick on Inventory and select the option Datastores and Datastore Clusters. Browse Data store and navigate to ASAv directory.Picture 1 - ASAv Files in DatastoreDownload all the files from directory to a local host with installed VMware Workstation.3.
Convert Virtual DisksThe following files were copied to a local host directory.Picture 2 - Size of Virtual Disks Before ConversionWhen we check the content of the file ASAv922.vmdk, we can see that virtual disk type is vmfs.Picture 3 - Virtual Disk Type - vmfsAlthough vmfs format can be directly used by VMware Workstation we will convert it to monolithicSparse type in order to reduce its size. To do this we will use offline disk manipulation utility - vmware-vdiskmanager that is included in VMware Workstation.Use the commands bellow to convert virtual disks to single growable virtual disks.$ vmware-vdiskmanager -r ASAv922.vmdk -t 0./ASAv922.vmdk$ vmware-vdiskmanager -r ASAv9221.vmdk -t 0./ASAv9221.vmdkReplace old virtual disk with the new ones and delete flat vmdk files that are not needed anymore.$ mv./ASAv922.$ rm.flat.4. Import Configuration FileStart VMware Workstation and navigate to the Files - Open. Select path to vmx file. VMware Workstation should be able to import settings successfully. Once you power on the virtual machine, click an option I copied it.Picture 4 - Dialog MenuEnd.Links.
Nice write up, thanks for the great how-to w/this setup.Is the expected behavior after a 'write-erase' on the ASAv to infinitely loop? I noticed that after I get everything up and running, if I invoke a write-erase and reload the ASA, it just loops. (ERROR: OVF environment unavailable, errno: 2). OVF XML parsing for device configuration - FAIL. Cannot read OVF., yadda yadda).Is there a better way to clear the configuration if you want to restart the configuration from scratch?
Should I just take a snapshot of the VM once I have applied the standard config and licensing to it? Is there a better way to handle this that you are aware of?Thanks!. Great work Radovan. But in this case you are wrong. The 'unsupported property' refers to the xml tag property in the ovf file - which is a 2.0 specification to the protocol.

The asav931.ova is different than what you are using. Basically, for the 9.31 you have a choice of 8 types of asas to load - IF the vmware application supported 2.0 of the specification. He has to manually go in and delete the 7 of those 8 'property'-ies which give you those 8 choices.
Also someone has messed up the.ova file and put syntax errors on line 451 and line 458 of the xml parsed.ovf file. I got mine working in vmplayer7.0, fails workstation 11.0 and am dropping down to 10.0 to try that. I got this up and running with 9.3.1, huge thanks for the guide. Has anyone running this noticed abnormally high CPU utilization with this VM running in workstation? Within the ASA (show processes cpu-usage) was not showing anything abnormal however the VM was pegged at 100% of its 1vCPU (25% of the overall of the Core i7 on my laptop).The CPU utilization is normal following bootup however once I push even the smallest amount of traffic through it the CPU instantly pegs and stays there. Shut down the VM and the utilization drops back down to nothing.
With my setup I am bridging the ASA 'Outside' and running one VM on a separate vmswitch which is routing its traffic through the ASA to access network and internet resources. Hi,i wanted to use ASAv in qemu so I started some research.
I used a VMworkstation version from ASAv 9.21. I have got exactly same problem as @Kim Do above. After I run the virtual ASA device on VMware Workstation v11 and power on the VM, it apparently boots fine and gets to the point where it discovers there are 4 NICs, and after that it creates a dump. This is the exact wording of error message:Assertion 'vfmodeinit' failed: file 'vfapi.c', line 135 core0 same core snapcount=1 signo=6 RIP=7ffffecd43fbASAv reboots continuously and every time the error message is same.Any fix for that please?? I had a good running system last year with VMware Workstation v10.
Virtualbox
In September of 2015, I switched to a new systems with Workstation v11.I am able to run ASAv 941-205 on v11 but get sporadic high CPU on my host (laptop with an i7). I have been thinking it was my new hardware as I was also experiencing system crashes for awhile. I fixed the system crash but still have issues with ASAv.Is there any other confirmation/insights that ASAv runs better on v10 vs v11 or v12? It will be an effort for me to switch back.
