your exam and the following steps show you how to configure it. 1. Download and install SDM from the www.cisco.com or from a share on the web. 2.

Now configure your router with the following commands: SDMRouter(config)#username your_username privilege 15 secret 5 SDMRouter(config)#ip http server SDMRouter(config)#ip http secure-server SDMRouter(config)#ip http authentication local SDMRouter(config)#line vty 0 4 SDMRouter(config-line)#login local SDMRouter(config-line)#transport input telnet ssh SDMRouter(config-line)#privilege level 15 SDMRouter(config-line)#line cons 0 SDMRouter(config-line)#login local SDMRouter(config-line)#transport input telnet ssh SDMRouter(config-line)#privilege level 15 SDMRouter(config-line)#exit SDMRouter(config)#crypto key generate rsa gen mod 1024 5. Now double-click the SDM icon and enter the IP address of the router and tick the box asking about HTTPS then click on Launch.

6. Ensure you allow popups on your browser. 7. Enter username and password as defined after step 3. 8. Say yes to allow SDM to install. You should now have a screen similar to the one below although this may be because I used a username and password of cisco which are the default.

9. Select a new username and password for the router then click OK. You should see the screen below then click OK.

10. You should now be in SDM and able to configure the router.
