In order to see what is going wrong with the SSL VPN, take the following debug:


diagnose debug reset

diagnose vpn ssl debug-filter src-addr4 x.x.x.x
diagnose debug application sslvpn -1

diagnose debug application fnbamd -1
diagnose debug enable

 

To clear the filter,  enter the following command:

 

diagnose vpn ssl debug-filter clear

 

Note:

x.x.x.x should be the public IP of the connecting user. The filter will ensure that the debug information relevant only to traffic from the specified IP address is captured, helping to focus on specific client troubleshooting.
