Hi,

Are you talking about the Cisco's administrative interface, or the
WebVPN interface? WebVPN allows users to access network resources
through a web client. While this is obviously a point of concern, ACLs
can be configured to limit access to resources for users.

I don't believe that the Cisco VPN Concentrator will lockout admin
accounts after invalid login attempts, so exposing the admin interface
would be of great concern.

later,
Steve
