This document lists steps to run SDM on a non-factory default configuration Cisco router.
Step 1. a) Connect to your router using Telnet, SSH or via console.
b) Enter the global configuration mode using the command:
Router(config)#enable
Step 2. Enable the router's HTTP/HTTPS server, using the following IOS commands.
If http/hhtps is enabled and configured to use non standard port numbers, you can skip this step and simply use the port number configured already.
Router(config)# ip http server
Router(config)# ip http secure-server
Router(config)# ip http authentication local
Note: HTTPS is enabled only for crypto enabled IOS images.
Step 3. Create a user with privilege level 15.
Router(config)# username <username> privilege 15 password 0 <password>
Note: Replace <username> and <password> with the username and password that you want to configure.
Step 4. Configure SSH and Telnet for local login and privilege level 15:
Router(config)# line vty 0 4
Router(config-line)# privilege level 15
Router(config-line)# login local
Router(config-line)# transport input telnet
Router(config-line)# transport input telnet ssh
Router(config-line)# exit
Step 5. (Optional) Enable local logging to support the log monitoring function:
Router(config)# logging buffered 51200 warning
