Installing SDM
SDM comes preinstalled on all supported routers manufactured in June 2003 or later that were purchased
with the VPN bundle. SDM is also available as a separate option on all supported routers manufactured
in June 2003 or later. If you have a router that does not have SDM installed, and would like to use SDM,
you must download it from the Cisco.com website and install SDM on your router.
Configuring Your Router to Support SDM
Before SDM can run on your router, a few configuration options must be present in the router
configuration file. There are several default router configuration files included in the SDM download file.
You can either use one of these default configuration files, or modify your existing configuration file
using the router CLI to ensure that your router configuration supports SDM.
