Dear Team,

ssh access must use the admin username / account for local authentication method.

I already used admin user name. But stiill acess denied. Tell anything need to check

What model and version is your FTD? What do you mean by "same credentials we able to login the ftd device locally."? Console login or something else? Is the device managed with FDM or FMC?

Likely AAA/SSH config: set aaa authentication ssh console LOCAL, ensure SSH is enabled on the correct interface and your source IP is allowed. Confirm the local user is privilege 15, then bounce SSH (no ssh → ssh) or run debug aaa authentication to see why it’s denied.

@mosesreza98 the poster is asking about FTD. ASA instructions are not applicable.
