Release Notes for Cisco Router and Security Device Manager 2.5
OL-5009-20
Caveats
• CSCef89472
A download exception message may appear in the Java console when Cisco SDM is launched on a
PC running Japanese Windows 2000, or Japanese Windows XP. This problem does not prevent
Cisco SDM from starting or from being used.
• CSCeg40910
The Cisco SDM installation program does not use HTTPS to back up files from the router.
• CSCeg67630
When Cisco SDM is invoked from Cisco SDM Express started under a nondefault browser, you
must reenter router username and password before Cisco SDM will start.
Workaround: Use the default browser when launching Cisco SDM Express.
• CSCeg67964
When Cisco SDM is installed on a PC running Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Internet Explorer
will display a message bar at the top of the browser window stating: “To help protect your security,
Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that access your computer.
Click here for options...” Clicking Allow blocked content does not enable Cisco SDM to launch.
Workaround: In Internet Explorer, go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced. Then scroll to the
Security section, check Allow active content to run in files on my computer
, and click Apply.
Then relaunch Cisco SDM.
• CSCeg74805
When Cisco SDM is run with certain Cisco IOS images, the number of Open Shortest Path First
(OSPF) processes created can be greater than the number of interfaces in the administratively UP
state. However, the running configuration does not display the value of the area configured for these
additional networks. Thus, Cisco SDM is unable to display the networks for these additional OSPF
processes. This problem has been reported with the following Cisco IOS images:
– c1700-k9o3sy7-mz.123-12.8.PI6
– c836-k9o3sy6-mz.123-11.T2.bin
– c181x-adventerprisek9-mz
• CSCeh05530
If signatures are imported using Cisco SDM IPS on a router running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T3,
system variables parameters are ignored by Cisco IOS.
Workaround: Upgrade to a Cisco IOS image that supports SystemVariables.
• CSCeh06870
The Cisco SDM Update from PC feature will not operate when the SDM-Vnn.zip file is placed in a
shared folder with read-only access.
Workaround: Do not place the SDM-Vnn.zip file in a folder with read-only access.
• CSCeg63100
Because of a problem with Cisco IOS (CSCeg63077), VPN troubleshooting will not detect the IKE
mismatch in site-to-site VPN configuration. Instead it will give a generic recommendation to apply
the mirror configuration generated by Cisco SDM which would solve this problem.
Workaround: Follow the recommendation displayed in the VPN troubleshooting window to apply
mirror configuration on both the devices.
