SDM Version 2.5 Router Access Issue

[jsponseller]

Hello everyone,

First time posting.

I am having an issue connecting SDM version 2.5 to my 2600 router. 

I have SDM installed and I am able to enter my level 15 username and password, which is accepted.  I can also enter my ssh username and password and it seems to be accepted as well.  But, I do not have https enabled on the router and I am not sure if the 2600 supports https access.  The issue surfaces when I try to enter my telnet username and password.  Every time I attempt to connect with the telnet username and password it indicates the username and/or password are incorrect.  I have enabled http (ip http server) and I created a new username and password.  I am able to login through a standard telnet session on my workstation with the new username and password.  I am not sure what I am missing. 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Jerry

Hi,

So you can connect with telnet with the new user/pass but not  with http?

enter this command: ip http authentication local

if you want https: ip http secure-server

Let us know if it solved.

Alain,

Thank you for the reply.

Here is the scenario:

With my old username/password, I believe is a level 15. I can login via HTTP but not via telnet.

With my new username/password, I can login via telnet but not via http.

Thoughts?

Hi,

can you post output of following commands:

1) show run | i http

2) show run | i user

3) show run | be line vty

4) show run | i secret

Regards.

Alain,

Here is the information you requested.

Thanks for taking a look.

Hi,

for telnet the authentication is the local username database so you can telnet with user/pass but you didn't specify any authentication for http so by default it uses the enable secret password.

if you want to login with user/pass via http then you'll have to issue the command I posted above:

ip http authentication local.

By the way you can remove the password under line vty because it isn't used anymore.

Regards.

Alain,

I finally was able to get the SDM login to work. But, once I got connected it stated that my 2600 router was not supported. Is there another router monitoring application that is available that is supported on the 2600?

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi,

SDM or its successor CCP is more of a configuration GUI for people having limited CLI knowledge than a monitoring tool.If SDM is not supported then I suppose CCP won't be either.

What sort of monitoring do you want?

Alain,

I am looking a tool that will allow me to monitor network traffic and identify specific IPs that may utilizing an abnormal amount of bandwidth.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Hi,

You could use Netflow but you'll need a machine with a netflow collector. I don't know if it is supported on Windows but on Linux you've got a lot of such applications.
