Hi Rupesh,

for ssh support also you should have crypto ios image in your switches, configure the following command in switches ip ssh source-interface " interface or vlan "

If helpful do rate the post

hello, found this post which is now related to my problem, i am using the ssh source interface command on my 6509-E but when i am doing copy runn scp; the packets are not taking the specified source interface ip, i am using  Version 12.2(18)SXF8, could it be the bug or am i missing some thing?

Thanks.

AFAIK, there's no command to manipulate the source of SCP copies, so it will be based on the RIB lookups, i.e. the best outgoing interface in accordance with 'sh ip route will be chosen as the outgoing interface.

HTH,

Ivan.

The ip ssh source-interface commad did work on other switches and routers like 3500/3700/2800 Coz without this comand the scp was not talking the desired source IP and worked when i used this command, but it didnt work for 6509.any clue?

Hi Zeeshan,

you're right, it works this way.

But due to CSCse79611 it is broken from 12.2(18)SXF5 onwards and works again in 12.2(18)SXF9

I hope this helps!

Ivan.

Perfect! i will try to upgrade.

Thanks for Help.

Zeeshan
