MX84 VPN question

Hello,

 

First post here.  I'm looking to replace our Cisco 2900 router, and one of the choices is the MX84.  My question is that can I use the AnyConnect VPN client for the MX84 or do I need a Cisco ASA?

 

For any one used the MX84, how do you like it so far?

 

Thanks,

 

Tony

Kind of a big deal

Unfortunately no you can't use AnyConnect as it utilized IKEv2 and the MX is currently only able to use IKEv1 (crazy I know, and hopefully they'll update it).

Here is the guide on how to configure a variety of clients to connect to the MX using ClientVPN.

Thanks.  I saw that link earlier, but I wasn't sure it this was still the case. Any idea why some connect a Cisco ASA to the MX so they can use AnyConnect?
