Check this box if you want SDM to test the connection you have configured after
it delivers the commands to the router. SDM will test the connection and report
results in another window.
Click Finish. SDM saves the configuration changes to the router's running
configuration. The changes will take effect immediately, but will be lost if the
router is turned off.
If you checked Preview commands before delivering to router in the SDM
Preferences window, the Deliver window appears. In this window, you can view
the CLI commands that you are delivering to the router.
This window allows you to test a configured connection by pinging a remote host.
If the ping fails, SDM reports the probable cause and suggests actions you can
take to correct the problem.
SDM can troubleshoot ADSL, G.SHDSL V1 and G.SHDSL V2 connections,
using PPPoE, AAL5SNAP or AAL5MUX encapsulation.
SDM can troubleshoot Ethernet connections with PPPoE encapsulation.
SDM cannot troubleshoot unencapsulated Ethernet connections, Serial and T1 or
E1 connections, Analog connections, and ISDN connections. SDM provides basic
ping testing for these connection types.
When SDM performs basic ping testing, it does the following:
Checks the interface status to see if it is up or down.

Checks DNS Settings, whether they be SDM default options or user-specified
2.
hostnames.
