Cisco PDM on a PIX 515E open original image

Hi The Cisco PIX 515E is all pretty new to me and to be perfectly honest it's doing my head in. I am sure that the PIX has all the neccessary licenses etc to run the Cisco PDM but when I try and run it the browser window tells me it is 'Loading PIX Device Manager. Please wait...' but then just sits there with an hour glass doing it's thing never actually allowing me to access the PDM



I have attached the sh ver to show that it should work, are there any reasons why this is not starting / working?



pix# sh ver

Your version of Java might be too -new-. PDM doesn't work with the last couple of java releases.

Just a side note http server enable http 192.168.100.0 25.255.255.0 inside

pdm location myhost 255.255.255.255 inside

Am I missing something?

Only if your host isn't part of 192.168.100.0, or if you are trying to access from outside.

The pdm location command should effectively be considered a comment; it is used for annotating PDM listings, not for any kind of access control.

PIX Device Manager (PDM) versions 3.0(1) , 3.0(2), 4.0(1), and 4.1(1), and IDS Device Manager (IDM) version 5.0(1), are incompatible with Java Plug-in versions 1.4.2_08 and 1.5.0_02 or later. If these Java Plug-ins are used in conjunction with the impacted PDM or IDM releases, the application will not load.
