Has it ever worked?

If not, do you have an active 3DES-AES license? Have you created an RSA key on the ASA and allowed the source address (or subnet) of the client you are using?

If so, what has changed?f

Dear Marvin,

Yes it was working earlier .

can we get the steps to re0configure SSH.ASA model is 5545.

Please first share the output of the following via console:

sh ver | i AES
show ssh

Dear Marvin,

Please find the below output and help us.

FG-POC-ASA-1/act/pri# sh version | include AES
Encryption-3DES-AES               : Enabled        perpetual
Encryption-3DES-AES               : Enabled        perpetual
FG-POC-ASA-1/act/pri# sho
FG-POC-ASA-1/act/pri# show ssh
ssh secure copy : ENABLED
Timeout: 5 minutes
Versions allowed: 1 and 2
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 INSIDE

Try generating a new key. Run the following from config mode:

crypto key gen rsa mod 2048

It's also a good idea to restrict ssh to v2:

ssh version 2
