WHat is wrong here?

Given what is in the config that you posted I would guess that the most likely issue is whether you have generated RSA encryption keys which are required for SSH to work. Did you generate RSA encryption keys?

What i did

2801CCME(config)#ip domain-name cisco.com

2801CCME(config)#crypto key generate rsa

The name for the keys will be: 2801CCME.cisco.com

Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your

General Purpose Keys. Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take

a few minutes.

How many bits in the modulus [512]:

% Generating 512 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]

2801CCME(config)#

*Mar 1 01:04:30.083: %SSH-5-ENABLED: SSH 1.99 has been enabled

As I understood I couldn't access to router though SSH without had ip domain-name command configured. Am I right?

[Richard Burts]

Alexandr

As I understand it: having a domain name configured is required to be able to generate the RSA keys. And having RSA keys generated is required to access the router through SSH. So indirectly it is correct that you can not access the router via SSH without a domain name configured.

My experience to date: You need a hostname and a domain name configured in order to generate RSA keys. Once you generate the RSA keys, you need to "copy run start" to keep them over a reboot. Once they are saved, you can change/delete hostname and domain name to your hearts content. Some of this behavior is probably IOS release or platform specific, so YMMV.

My experience is different from Vince. I am not sure that copy run start is needed - though it certainly does not hurt. And in my experience if you change the host name then it invalidates the RSA keys and you need to re-generate the RSA keys.

As I said in my original response, your mileage may vary. On the last systems I tested (1811s running 12.4(15)XY5) changing the hostname in the config had no impact on ssh accessibility while failure to save the first key generated with a "copy run start" did. I recall working on other devices which had a separate command to save the keys. Whether or not it should is a separate issue, as anyone who deals with routers knows. (In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, however, in practice, there is.)
