Enabling ssh connection on WS-C2960-24TC-L

[sal.mobin]

Hi,

I  have two WS-C2960-24TC-L Switch with Software Ver  12.2(25r)SEE6 with image c2960-lanbase-mz.122-35.SE5.bin and 12.2(25r)SEE1 with image

c2960-lanbase-mz.122-25.SEE2.bin currently on it. 

I want to enable SSH connections on  the switches and believe I need to import the cryto image onto the  switch. I would like to upgrade it to new version that can also support ssh connection but not sure which image to download from cisco. The switches are  now live.

System image file is "flash:c2960-lanbase-mz.122-35.SE5/c2960-lanbase-mz.122-35.SE5.bin"

cisco WS-C2960-24TC-L (PowerPC405) processor (revision H0) with 61440K/4088K bytes of memory.

BOOTLDR: C2960 Boot Loader (C2960-HBOOT-M) Version 12.2(25r)SEE6, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

Hi Sal,

Your software version does not support encryption , thus does not support SSH. You will need a image that will supported, the name contains K9.

You can check by : show ip ssh

Hi Dan,

Thanks for the reply, which image I can upgrade to I found many releases on cisco.com download site but I want to make sure that the image can support the platform and stable... I am thinking c2960-lanbasek9-mz.122-35.SE5.bin this image but there are other new images found....does it matter or any K9 will work..... Thanks in advance

The ones that contains k9 in the name : c2960-lanbasek9-mz.... The 3rd will be ok.
