Re: Cisco SDM doesn't launch SDM GUI from popup window Definitely sounds like a Java issue. Cisco apps tend to only work well with specific versions of Java. I have found this to be true with CiscoWorks and SDM. I know from experience that the newer versions do not work well or work at all with SDM. Definitely try downgrading to a lower version.
FYI... from Cisco's site

Osgoode, ON | said by tdoran:Try CCP with version 9 of JAVA Tim I second this advice and the advice in general about Java working with both the SDM and also CCP.
BTW, did you know there's an Exam Cram series book for the CCNA Security? It's a condensed reference and very useful for someone who wishes to master the essentials of the subject in a short amount of time. I should know, I wrote it!

| CCNA Security Exam Cram Hello,
I recently looked at the CCNA Security Exam Cram book. While thumbing through it, my impression is that it has the same material as the Cisco Press book but perhaps in a more readable format. I didn’t spend a whole lot of time looking at it though. Would you recommend it over the Cisco Press book?
Does the Exam Cram book make any suggestions on a lab setup? The Cisco Press book doesn't. Any thoughts on a lab setup to play with while studying for the CCNA Security cert?
I have a 3560 at my desk at work that I've played with for the AAA setup and a 2620XM at home I've used to play with SDM. I've only gotten to chapter 10 so far in the Cisco Press book so I'm not sure what else I'll run into that I can practice implementing.
Thanks,
Rob |

My book doesn't make any specific suggestions for a CCNA lab setup. Would I recommend my book over the Cisco Press book? It depends. As an exam preparation guide it's hard to beat but even though it stands by itself pretty well as a good overall read, the Cisco Press book is better as a self-contained study of the topics. They're both published by the same publishing house (Pearson Ed) so the quality control is similar.
