Create or Update Aliases for a Connection Profile

Aliases contain alternate names or URLs for a specific connection profile. Remote Access VPN administrators can enable or disable the Alias names and Alias URLs. VPN users can choose an Alias name when they connect to the Firepower Threat Defense device. Aliases names for all connections configured on this device can be turned on or off for display. You can also configure the list of Alias URLs, which your endpoints can select while initiating the Remote Access VPN connection. If users connect using the Alias URL, system will automatically log them using the connection profile that matches the Alias URL.
