Core issue
The auto-reconnect feature allows VPN 3002 hardware clients to reconnect to ASA without the need to manually enter the user name and password.
Resolution
Complete these steps in order to enable auto-reconnect feature on the Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM):
- Choose Configuration > VPN > General > GroupPolicy.
- Choose the GroupPolicy you use for your 3002 clients and click Edit.
- Choose Client Configuration > Cisco Client Parameters > Store Password on Client System, and then choose the radio button in order to enable it.
- Choose the Hardware Client tab and make sure that Require Interactive Client Authentication is set to Disable.
For the command line, refer to this configuration example:
ASA5510(config)#username cisco attributes
ASA5510(config-username)#password-storage enable
ASA5510(config)#group-policy cisco123 attributes
ASA5510(config-group-policy)#password-storage enable
