Two cases, two possibilities:
You could initiate a client connection from your laptop to the cisco, than a second connection from the cisco to the final target:
<laptop> ---- <cisco> ... <cisco> ---- <final>
In this case, datas will transit in clear at cisco host.
Or you could initiate a client connection from your laptop to the cisco, than a second connection from your laptop to the final target:
<laptop> ---- <cisco> .... <final>
<laptap><laptop> ----------------- <final>
In this case (while both encryption tunnels are initiated successively from the same host: the laptop), it will be a tunnel within a tunneltunnel within a tunnel
and cisco won't see unencrypted datas.
Nota: In this,
---- mean encrypted connection and
.... mean unencrypted (local or network) connection
