Before I get to deep into this I wanted to get some opinions on this. I currently manage most of my routers by authenticating to a firewall and from there I can ssh or telnet to a console server. From there I manage my routers and switches. I don't think it is but is it possible to load SDM on the router and my PC and "somehow" connect through the firewall and console server via my web browser?
 
Yes. Load SDM on flash, and


ip http secure-server
ip http authen local
username bla priv 15 secret blabla

Even if my pc and router are on different subnets?
 
Yeah you may need to change the default listening port of the sdm and the port porward that through the router.

Yes---in other words, statically NAT the router IP to the public IP of the outer interface in the firewall.

I didn't do a good job explaining my network properly. I"m sitting on our corporate network and authenticate to a firewall that has legs to multiple networks that serve a variety of purposes. From there I telnet to a network that I set up strictly for my console servers. I then jump on to the Logical Solutions Secure Console Server and then simply connect to whatever routers I have connected to the console server. Given the nature of our business I would not be able to make any changes to the firewall without getting some major approval. I just don't see how I would get it to work because I'm using a Secure CRT program to connect to the firewall and the console server. I don't see how my browser would know to establish a connection with the remote router through this program? Maybe I'm missing something..........
 
HTTP from the server. Is this an option?

I think your missing a little basic networking.
The way you explained it, it is not possible, you are using a console server from which you reverse telnet into the router. Plus the routers would need routes to your network,and you would need to poke a whole in the firewall.

You are managing these routers?
