SSH can be enabled when you bootstrap ISE.

Here is CLI command to enable SSH.

I have not enabled SSH while configuring ISE, now I am not able even able to open any cli console. This guide is asking to put command on cli, but for me cli itself is not opening.

If it was not enabled during the bootstrapping, you will need to gain CLI access via another method in order to enable the SSH service on ISE.

If this is a physical appliance, you can connect to the CIMC and use the virtual KVM to gain console access.

If this is a virtual appliance, you would need to use the relevant virtual console depending on what virtual platform you are using (VMware, KVM, etc).
