Yeah I know the wireless is separate from the VPN Tunnel, maybe i worded the question wrong.<br />
<br />
If there is someone else on the unsecured wireless or secure wireless for that matter can they run some type of packet sniffer to grab the user credentials for the VPN. &nbsp;<br />
Thanks

We have a Cisco ASA that manages the VPN tunnels. The clients connect to Cisco VPN Client 5.0. I know the VPN Profile password is encrypted, I wanted to find out if the user is on a unsecure wireless network or some type of hotspot if there user name password is also encrypted. &nbsp; <br />
<br />
I would think it is I just want to verify that. It uses ACS to Authenticate to the Domain when they log in through the VPN. <br />

Cisco VPN Question

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.

Wireless Hardware

A virtual private network (VPN) is a network that uses a public telecommunication infrastructure, such as the Internet, to provide remote offices or travelling users access to a central organizational network securely. VPNs encapsulate data transfers using secure cryptographic methods and other security mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the network and that the data cannot be intercepted.

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).
