Re: Cisco 870 / SDM from scratch - Page 3

Hi Folks,

I just re-install the IOS on my router (via XMODEM) - I now want to put SDM back on the box, but I can't connect to the router with the SDM installer? I can connect via HTTP/HTTPS to the router via it's default IP address (although the page it displays is just basic info) but when I try and connect via SDM installer it's not connecting?

What do I need to do?

Cheers,

M

It comes back with:-

No files in directory

I have never used xmodem -r. That copies the image into dram and i don't know if there is a command to copy dram to flash. If anybody else knows please step in.

However you should be able to now copy the image from tftp into flash ie.

router# copy tftp flash

and then you will be prompted for ip address of tftp server, image name etc.

If that works then you need to make sure you set the configuration to 0x2102. A "sh run" should show you what the current setting is.

Great stuff mate, copying over image now with TFTP to FLASH. I'll be sure to make sure I set the 0x2102 command :)

OK, can I just double check the command to set it to 0x2102 I'm not in ROMMOM anymore so the command to set it in there no longer works.

Jon Marshall · ‎10-02-2008

router# config-register 0x 2102

then do a "sh run" and verify that this is the config register.

Then do a write mem. Cross fingers and reload :)

Hi Folks,

I have a quick question. I'm using 12.5 version of SDM. However, when I go to the Firewall / ACL tab the interface has changed massively to what it was before I built my firewall. I'm still using the same version of IOS. The interface now looks really basic as if it's an old version. Anyone come across this before or no how to get back the familiar interface?

Cheers,

M

Can't help you with the above unfortunately. Just wanted to suggest you may be better off posting this question in a new thread as this one has become rather long and many people might not bother reading to the end.

Just a suggestion.
