Enable ssh on a router!

Hi all, I just bought an additional router for my network and I'm in the process of setting it up.

I have however hit a snag with enabling ssh on the device. It is a cisco router 2811 running IOS 15.0 (refer below to my attempts)

test#sh ver

Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800NM-IPBASE-M), Version 15.0(1)M6, RELEASE

SOFTWARE (fc1)

ROM: System Bootstrap, Version 12.4(13r)T11, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

test#sh ip ssh

            ^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

test#

test(config)#hostname test-router

test-router(config)#user

test-router(config)#username cisco priv

test-router(config)#username cisco privilege 15 pas

test-router(config)#username cisco privilege 15 password cisco

test-router(config)#ip domain

test-router(config)#ip domain

test-router(config)#ip domain

test-router(config)#ip domain-

test-router(config)#ip domain-n

test-router(config)#ip domain-name test.com

test-router(config)#crypto key generate rsa

                     ^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

test-router(config)#crypto key generate rsa  ?

% Unrecognized command

test-router(config)#

Kindly advice what i'm I doing doing wrong.

My older routers are comfortably running ssh.

Regards,

Dan

Hey Daniel,
