Question:
For some reason, I am login through the web interface for our Cisco 2960X, and I got "Access denied" when I used Putty to SSH the Cisco 2960x. Any Sugguestion that what can do at the moment? Thank you!

Hi there,
Sounds like your vty config is using a different authentication method to your http-server.
Can you share the running-config of the switch?
cheers,

the reason you can get the web interface is because by default http is on.
in order for you to get the ssh in to a cisco 2960X.
!
hostname SW
!
ip domain-name xxxxx.com (whatever your organistaion domain put it here)
!
crypto key gen rsa label switch2960 module 1024
!
ip ssh version 2
!
username admin password cisco
!
line vty 0 10
transport input ssh
login local

At the moment, I only can access with Telnet to the SW. And I'm not Network person. How can I get the running config with Telnet?

ip domain-name xxxxx.com (whatever your organistaion domain put it here)
!
crypto key gen rsa label switch2960 module 1024
!
ip ssh version 2

transport input telnet ssh
login local
now as you have access to box via telnet if you apply the above config you will have acess to the box also with telnet and with ssh.
