Do the following:
Configure a host name for your router:
hostname
Configures a host domain for your router:
ip domain-name
Enable the SSH server for local and remote authentication on the router:
crypto key generate rsa
And then do the following ( if using tacacs):
aaa authentication login default tacacs+ tacacs-server host
tacacs-server key
Note: you can also use local authentication in plac of tacacs using the following:
username myuser password mypassword
aaa authentication login default local
hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.

Hi,
One thing I neglected to mention is that you will need an IOS image that supports encryption (DES/3DES)...

Thanks Paresh. I'll use local authentication only (no RADIUS or TACACS+). I'm going to enable SSH in production Router. Will it cause any problem (packet drop etcc... for a moment ) while enabling SSH feature.
Thanks

Hi Raju,
While it should not theoretically cause a hit, these things are always quite unpredictable. Therefore, you should take appropriate precautions before you do so.
Do you have a lab router where you can try this out first ?
Hope that helps - pls rate posts that help.
