ssh error status 0

[RMS3]

Hi,

I have a couple of switches configured and when I try to ssh into one switch from another I get the error:

Connection to 1x.x.x.x aborted: error status 0.

I tried connected a PC to the switch port and the remote session and it worked fine.

Could someone explain why this is happening and suggest a solution?

Connection to 1x.x.x.x aborted: error status 0.  <-- what is the syntax you used ?

try ssh -l (username) -p xxxx  1x.x.x.x  or ssh -v 2 -l username 1x.x.x.x

Note : make sure the device from you trying  have VTY lines transport output ssh

Other troubleshoot  - is the ping ok ? check on the other end any errors ? (show logging)

Hi,

it can be unsupported ssh client functionality on box or mismatching version / ciphers.

What IOS version do you use on the problematic switch? What is device model?

I am getting an error but this is due to a cipher mismatch, I think. Correct me if I am wrong, but this shows I can reach 192.168.7.113 from the Core using ssh. I can ssh to it without any problems using Putty from 192.168.7.0

CORE1#ssh -l admin 192.168.7.113
[Connection to 192.168.7.113 aborted: error status 0]

I can ssh from Core1 to another switch

CORE1#ssh -l admin 192.168.7.89
Password:

EDIT. yes, I can

CORE1#telnet 192.168.7.113 22
Trying 192.168.7.113, 22 ... Open

SSH is NOT the issue. The issue is with routing. I cannot ping/ssh/https reach this AP from another network.
