Hi guys,
I would like to know if I can skip XAuth for a Remote VPN Access on a router.
Here's my config, all working beautifully, still when connecting I would like not seeing any username&password window after clicking on the Vpn profile.

Hi Florin,
In case of remote access VPN , user has to be authenticated either via username/password or certificates.
You can deploy certificate based authentication as follows:-
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security-vpn/ipsec-negotiation-ike-protocols/22520-unityclient-ios.html#router-config
This will use the certificate for user authentication and won't prompt for username/password.

To add, IKE authentication can use RSA (certs, signature, encryption) or PSK, xauth can be done with user/pass only or skipped altogether.
To bypass xauth either remove client authentication or set the AAA group to none. It's been a while since I tested this. I think the latter should work on IOS.

Florin, did you by any chance tried removing the client authentication statement (from crypto map or isakmp profile).

I think I did, but I will retry tomorrow. Either way I doubt it will work, but I will comeback with the outcome.

Florin,
I _remember_ this working with isakmp profile. But it's something I've done a couple of years ago at least.
