WS-6513-E switch SSH issue

tdoucette314 · ‎10-10-2023

Hello,

I'm having trouble SSHing between my 6513E switches. I can SSH to them from my laptop but when trying to SSH from another cisco switch's CLI to the 6513E switches it times out.

I turned off all ACLs on my vty to see if it was something with me ACL configuration but I'm still not able to SSH in from another cisco switch.

Thank you for your help!

- Can be cumbersome to resolve , especially if they have many vlans ; check if you can ping in between ; but in general that is not best practice and better is to SSH to the network devices from a management station (PC or other) , for security that is also better (don't create holes)

You need provide more information,

what is the switch config - what IP address you have on the switch ?

what is the PC IP you able to ssh, what client you using to connect SSH ?

what is the switch model you trying to use to connect to other switch ? - what is the IP address ? - what is the syntax you used to connect to other switch ?

From the switch you failed to connect, are you able to ping other device ?

When the SSH failed , do you see any logs on 6K switch ?

What is the source IP of the outbound SSH? You can set it with the: ip ssh source-interface command.
