Cisco SDM

Jammywanks

Is this application tested on the exam? Thats all I really want to know. I'm not asking for free answers, just if anyone took the latest 640-802 exam and came across anything related to SDM.

It is in the exam topics (in several places), therefore it can be on the test.

Yep and the worst part is I've NEVER played with this product, always just the command line. So... I had to get a 2610XM just to be able to do it

I've got two 2500 routers, and as you know SDM isn't supported on them. But I was able to practice with GNS 3 setting up a loopback interface on my PC and connecting directly. That did the trick!

as far as the blue print goes sdm is on the exam, i only have 2501 routers aswell so mine arent compatible with the sdm application

so ive been using gns3 aswell seems to work quite well

cheers

Thats interesting. Have you got an example of this?

Damn, I tried to download it from the Cisco website but of course they have to be a pain in the as$ requiring a login/pass to get anything from them. I will try to search for more alternative sources to get it from, if possible. Anyone with any info please PM me if necessary. Thanks.

Thanks.

So what's your issue with using a guest level registration to download it from Cisco? If you can't follow simple instructions for a free internet download, or have an issue with identifying yourself to Cisco because of other activities you engage in, you may want to reconsider a non-Cisco field of study.

Download link is in this thread http://www.techexams.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=30514 and it still works fine with a Cisco Guest Level Account.
