• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

Hello in a school lab we have a Cisco ASA 5500 sitting between the WAN and layer 3 switch. See diagram below:

On the ASA 5500 we have SSL VPN (also known as clientless VPN) running. On the digram in the server farm area, we have an ESXi server running.

Connecting from outside the network, a user is unable to get into the vSphere web client, it throws up this error

if a user were to directly connect to the layer 3 switch, by passing the firewall, vsphere web client can load fine. im guessing it could be an issue with the firewall, in which case, this would be the wrong place to ask, but it could also be an issue with esxi?
 
no that wasnt me, but at least now i know other people are experiencing similar issues.
 
I don't know why you are having the problem, but assuming you can create a vm that supports RDP, you could RDP into the VM. Then, from the VM go the vSphere webclient. One option for the VM is ubuntu with xRDP enabled.
 
Sounds like it is definitely a firewall issue. What version firmware do you have on the ASA? I am familiar with version from 7 to 8.5(1).
