Cisco SDM

I already read topic about Cisco SDM (security device manager), Cisco SDM is web-based device management tool for cisco IOS software-based routers, benefit are smart wizards and build-in tutorials. Cisco make SDM factory installed on
- cisco 850 series
- cisco 870 series
- cisco 1800 series
- cisco 2800 series
- cisco 3800 series

Cisco also release Cisco SDM express can access from https://10.10.10.1 (factory default IP)

Cisco SDM can launch from a PC (program installed, Windows OS only) and from router flash memory (web)

Cisco SDM does not synchronize with the router configuration automatically must be used refresh button to resynchronize the router running config with cisco SDM.

Is it reliable there is feature SDM ? I think this is like management device from web to easy configuration not using CLI (command line interface) again and using for Best Common Practices. If using this method I can't using copy/paste :d, so must be memorize step-by-step path menu from SDM.

dynamips in Mac OS X (PowerPC)

I already tried many time to rebuild dynamips from source in OS X with PowerPC processors, but still failed :(, but yesterday I read in ipflow.utc.fr blog mention in version 0.2.7 optimize PowerPC emmm this statement make me little happy but how rebuild it? all parameter configure using default? still confuse. Finally I try again step-by-step I repeat again, and sucess run dynamips in my iBook G4, oh this is make me very-very happy :)

This is my step

0.install XCode from OSX DVD or download from Apple site

1.install darwinports (MacPorts), download first using default internet get file like 'curl -O http://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/downloads/MacPorts-1.5.0/MacPorts-1.5.0-10.4.dmg', or you can wget if you already installed or using safari browser

2.run 'sudo port -d selfupdate'

3.run 'sudo port install libpcap'

4.download libelf package 'curl -O http://www.mr511.de/software/libelf-0.8.6.tar.gz', extract it 'tar -zxvf libelf-0.8.6.tar.gz' and build from source using '/configure --prefix=/usr/local' then 'make' and 'sudo make install'

5.download dynamips source code I using 0.2.7 version from http://www.ipflow.utc.fr/dynamips/dynamips-0.2.7.tar.gz, extract it using 'tar -zxvf dynamips-0.2.7.tar.gz', in directory source edit file 'Makefile' to use 'nojit' and change the line PCAP_LIB to 'PCAP_LIB=-L/opt/local/lib -lpcap'

6.run dynamips
- run as standalone router
./dynamips -X ios.bin (-X using to real memory not cache on hardisk)
- run as server
./dynamips -H 7200

First time I running still error
...
C7200 'R1': starting simulation (CPU0 PC=0xffffffffbfc00000), JIT enabled.
This function should not be called: void mips64_inc_cp0_count_reg(mips64_jit_tcb_t *b)
...
I think JIT cannot enabled, so I trick using ./dynamips -X -j ios.bin (-j disabled JIT)

this trick run normally if as standalone router but cannot run as server, there is no parameter use to disable JIT :(( I very stuck with this happen :(

I try to rebuild again from first step & what happen this is unbelievable, there is no error again JIT automatic disable without paramter -j oh, this great.

Now I can run dynamips on my iBook :D but I can't optimize idle-pc :(, I try to give idle-pc value from I ever use it just work (not absolutely well) on a IOS version :(

I still looking for to work well idle-pc and enable JIT, from information JIT can make faster process.

20072007, going to CCIE

20072007, date time today, 20 07 2007. May be it not popular than a few day ago 070707 07 07 2007. Two day ago I finished with my CCIP (cisco certified internetwork professional) with 3 module BCSI, QoS and BGP+MPLS with high score, NOW I'm CCIP (*said in 18 07 2007), thank to god :), thank to my parent for always blessing to do anything positive, thank to my someone always support me every time I booring about my study or my lab, for my friend in rent house, for my team in company always give opportunity every time to study in my office work :d, to all my friend always support me in every time. in a few minutes ago I log in in Certificate Tracking System www.certmanager.net, I can see Certificate Status: CCIP but I still wait my certificate ship.

Next step going to CCIE (cisco certified internetwork expert) service provider track, actually I still little confuse about SP track or R&S track first :-s, to cope it, I study topic related with two track first so if in the middle way I change my choose I can adapt fast. In the middle of my way to going to CCIE may be I take specialist like CISS (cisco information security specialist) or etc. it's related with CCIE wannabe.

oh I almost forget, vote to iPod Nano (1st generation), always help to study in any where now it's time to 'iPod Nano' for CCIP-wannabe-that-must-travel-any-time. in next time I don't know, I can still using iPod Nano to help study in travel (cause this iPod I borrow from my someone :d), next CCIE-wannabe may be I need something can help me to watch video about 'class-on-demand' in travel time. emmm choose iPod video or Zune :-? it's still mistery ;)) before iPod Nano return to the owner I can still use it to study my summary in travel time.
