SDM security audit

I have a quick question about this feature. Can someone give me an idea as to how long it takes for the audit to finish? Even a general ballpark range would suffice.

The reason I ask is because last night I completely blew away my 2650xm. Installed c2600-advsecurityk9-mz.124-6.T.bin and SDM 2.5. This router has 128/32. Boots up with no problems. Configured basic interface settings as well as the necessary commands to enable SDM. Can log into SDM with no problems.

However when I try to run a security audit, I never get a response. I've let it sit for nearly 2 hours now and all I get is the spinning blue circle in Win 7.

Doesn't take long. A few seconds if I remember correctly. A minute at the most. Your SDM is flakey because you're running a newer version of Java than what SDM was designed for.

Ahh, yeah that would make perfect sense. I completely overlooked java. Thanks Tiersten.

Yeah, had that issue myself.

Thanks for the tips!

I ended up just building a Windows XP VM and installing an older version of the Java client. It works like a champ.
