[angelus1]

Hi all ,

I'm trying to log in my switch using SSH .i followed every step as described in the configuration guide document but in vain.Here is my configuration :

ssh server enable

public-key local create rsa name ssh_key

ssh user sshuser service-type stelnet authentication-type password

user-interface vty 0 4

     authentication-mode scheme

     protocol inbound ssh

Am i missing something ? thanks for your help.

PS: TELNET works fine.

Hello,

Did you generate RSA keys ? are you getting any error while logging through SSH

Thanks and regards

Hi,

Yes the rsa key is generated and it's present under the  "display key-public ....... " command . No error message

Thanks,

Try using a local user -

#
local-user admin class manage
 password simple password
 service-type ssh telnet
 authorization-attribute user-role network-admin

i configured the local user. it seems  that the switch doesn't accept ssh connection  although it's configured. No prompt to enter the ssh user credentials.

Putty client returns this error message "Server unexpectedly closed network connection"
