I understand its a pretty vague question but i inherited an already configured ASA 5510 at my current employer. &nbsp;I am not a cisco guru by any stretch and was hoping someone could help me figure out why web traffic is not allowed when you are connected via VPN to our ASA. &nbsp;Is this default behavior or should i be looking for an acl entry that denies this traffic?

Cisco ASA 5510 doesnt allow web traffic through VPN

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

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.
