Turn on ssh on Cisco 827H?

Hi guys,
I have a Cisco 827 and want to turn on SSH.
when i do:
conf t
show ip ssh
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Then i want to create a crypto:
Crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Well, thats strange!
Does someone has a good tip for me?
Thanks!!!

Enabling SSH on Cisco 4507

How do you configure ssh on Cisco 4507 ? I did "show ip ssh" and the log below is displayed as a result.
Router#show ip ssh

Hi,
Check this link..
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk583/tk617/technologies_tech_note09186a00800949e2.shtml
aaa related commands are not mandatory. You can even use local authentication. Also, make sure the IOS supports SSH.
Do 'Shoe version' the IOS name contains 'k9' for crypto.

Password change from SSH in Cisco Secure ACS 4.1

I am using cisco ACS for windows Release 4.1(1) Build 23 Patch 5.
I have enable password aging for 30 days. after 30 days it is prompting me to change the password while i telnet to any client. it is working fine.\
Recently we have disabled telnet in all network devices and using ssh instead of telnet.
Am not able to change the password from putty. same if i connect through the telnet it is prompting to change the password.
Because of this i am not able to access any network devices after 30 days.
Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Went through this painful exercise a couple
weeks ago. You need to use the IOS 12.4
K9 image on the routers because password change
only supports on ssh version 2. See example
below:
[Expert@P1-NGx]# ssh -2 -l ngx1 192.168.15.248

Configuring SSH on Cisco uBR7246VXR? Please help

I have a Empty startup-config file on my ubr7. I need to enable shh so i can ssh to the uBR without being physicaly next to it. Im am told i should enable Radius?. Does anyone have an idea how i can do this?

I have never used/configured that particular type of hardware but if it runs Cisco IOS then you can follow this:

SSH from Cisco Router to another Cisco Router

I believe I already know what the issue is but wanted to confirm.
I recently changed the configuration of the routers so that all incoming SSH connections can only be done via the specified port:
ip ssh port xxxx rotary 10
created an ACL and everything works beautifully with Putty. When I try to SSH from a router to another router it sits there and the ACL permits the connection but nothing happens.
I use ssh -p xxxx NAME.
I assume this is because of the cert not being recognized by the connecting router?

Hi,
I'm afraid you misunderstood the purpose of ip ssh port:
To enable secure access to tty (asynchronous) lines, use the ip ssh port command in global configuration mode. To disable this functionality, use the no form of this command.
ip ssh port por-tnum rotary group
no ip ssh port por-tnum rotary group
The result of your command
ip ssh port xxxx rotary 10
is, that incoming ssh sessions destined to your secret port xxxx will be forwarded to a vacant async interface belonging to rotary group 10. That is: anything you type into your ssh client will be sent out as an asynchronous character to the async interface to which the ssh session is connected to. Now I assume that you dont have
What you might want to try is the command rotary which allows to put vty into a rotary group
line vty 2 4
rotary 10
login local

How to turn on multicast on cisco RV 180?

Hi.
I can't find how to set up iptv on RV180, can somebody help me or where i can read about this?

Easy to turn off the Wifi, but a bit more complicated to turn it back on. Here are the screenshots for AirPort Utility 6.1:
To completely turn off the wireless radio signal on the AirPort Extreme......
Open AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort Extreme icon
Click Edit
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the window
Change the setting for Network Mode to Off
Click Update to save the settings and the AirPort Extreme will restart in about 30 seconds
To turn the wireless function back on, perform the same steps above to reach the Wireless tab
Change the Network Mode to Create a wireless network
Type in the name of your Wireless Network
Set Wireless Security to WPA2 Personal
Enter your wireless password and confirm
Cllick Update to save the settings and the AirPort Extreme will restart in about 30 seconds
If this seem too complicated, there is another possibly simpler option, mentioned previously by alanoconnor, but it will be a setting to either allow wireless devices to connect to your network, or not connect.
This option will not turn off the wireless radio on your AirPort Extreme, the wireless radio will remain on at all times, something that you may not want.

Changing SSH port in Cisco switches

Hello everyone
I have switches with different platforms 2950 , 3750 , 3560 ...... I want to change the port of SSH , but the command ip ssh port not found ... be informed that the IOS is ipservice type for layer 3 switches

Sorry but you cannot change the port (tcp/22) used by ssh on Cisco switches.
The best practices for securing it it include:
- enforce ssh version 2,
- apply an access-list to your vty lines,
- set a timeout and retry lockout, and
- possibly control plane policing.

String cisco commands together (sh via ssh)

i need to update several cisco devices (all the same) and want to do it in an automated fasion.
i want to use ssh to login, enable to admin, then tftp get the image, write and be done with it...
can you string cisco ios commands (and echo pass | enable for that matter) under the cisco shell interpreter???
ie:
ssh admin@cisco cmd1; cmd2; cmd3; cmd4; cmd5
ultimately, ssh admin@cisco echo pass | enable; archive download tftp://path/file; write; sync; reboot
possible?

You can do Cisco IOS Scripting with Tcl. More details are available in the following links.

Privileged Exec password works for telnet but not web interface on Cisco AP 1242

I recently configured a Cisco AP 1242, software version 12.4, via the web interface using the default Cisco credentials. At that time I setup an administrator account with read/write access and changed the Cisco to a read only access. Now went I attempt to login to the web interface it won't accept the administrator password. It will except the administrator password in a telnet session however. So via the telnet session I setup another user with privileged exec level access and that wont work on the web interface either. The Login box keeps coming back requesting a password. Strangely enough, I can login to the web Interface using admin username, with the Cisco password; but I can't do anything, and I also can't view everything.
I've tried the following:
I've turned on SSH and created a certificate in the AP, but the login box continues to pop on the https://url.
I've attempted to setup a user with a non-encrypted password, but have been unsuccessful.
I've tried a different browser - login box continues to pop.
I've made sure the web interface is activated in the AP
I've tried a differnet computer
I've tried disabling password-encryption service
Reset the enable password
I've successfully setup other 1240 APs but must have done something wrong on this one. Anyone know what I'm missing? Thanks.
Solution: I was missing "ip http authentication local" in my config.

SG300 ssh strange error: "A client is already connected"

Hi,
I've got a few SG300-52 switches running software version 1.3.0.62 which I configured for ssh management access with public key authentication via:
ip ssh server
ip ssh pubkey-auth auto-login
username mgmt password ... privilege 15
crypto key pubkey-chain ssh
user-key mgmt rsa
key-string ...
This is working fine if I connect interactively from my management system with:
ssh -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch
where mgmt_id_rsa is the name of a file containing the private key.
I get a privileged command prompt as intended, without being asked for a password.
However if I try to pass a command on the ssh command line like this:
ssh -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch show version
the command just hangs until I hit the Enter key a second time, and then emits the strange message:
Received disconnect from 10.11.12.13: 2:
A client is already connected
(Exactly like that, including the line break after the "2:" and the blank before "A client".)The same happens if I pipe the command I want to send into ssh like this:
echo show version | ssh -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch
except the error message appears immediately and I don't have to hit Enter a second time.
This is unfortunate as the objective of the whole exercise is to send commands to the switch from a script.
Can anyone shed some light on why this is so? What is that strange message "a client is already connected" trying to tell me? Is that another bug in Cisco's ssh implementation? Ideas for a workaround, anyone?
Thanks,
Tilman
PS: I already asked that question over in the "big business" support community before noticing there's a separate small business section, but got no answer there.
PPS: The real objective of the exercise is to make scripted backups and updates of the switches' configurations, ie. what would be naturally expressed as
scp -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch:running-config /var/backup/switch.config
and
scp -i mgmt_id_rsa /var/conf/switch.configchange mgmt@switch:running-config
except it doesn't work that way because the SG300's ssh server lacks scp support. Trying to replace that by
ssh -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch copy running-config scp://server/var/backup/switch.config
and
ssh -i mgmt_id_rsa mgmt@switch copy scp://server/var/conf/switch.configchange running-config
led me straight to the problem above. Just in case someone feels inclined to ask the standard forum question: "Why do you want that anyway?" :-)

Hi all,
I've improved my expect script a bit to:
allow specifying the SSH user and keyfile on the command line
allow sending configuration mode commands
correctly handle very long commands (line wrap) and commands producing no output
Extended usage:
ciscosb-exec confuser@myswitch -i ~/.ssh/confuser_id_rsa -c "ip ssh-client username memyself"
ciscosb-exec confuser@myswitch -i ~/.ssh/confuser_id_rsa "copy scp://myserver/workdir/myswitch.configchange running-config"

Cisco VPN Client after Windows Vista Update (KB941229)

I had the Cisco VPN client 5 installed on my laptop and configured by the IT department at work. It was working fine all day until I restarted and KB941229 was automatically installed. When it turned back on the Cisco VPN service (CVPND) would attempt to run then stop. If I started it manually it would run for about a minute then stop again. Without the service running the VPN client won't open, let alone let me connect.
I know this vista update is fairly recent so I'm not sure there will be a fix but maybe somebody can think of a workaround or some way to fix this situation.
Things I've tried:
1) Uninstalling the windows update
2) restarting
3) restarting (in denial that this was happening)
4) configuring a vista VPN connection to attempt to connect to the company VPN (this failed too)
Uninstalling the update caused me to be unable to ping for some reason. This meant the VPN client would run but be unable to connect to the server and yet I was entirely able to access the internet locally. I reinstalled the update assuming maybe the installation went badly but that caused the same problem with the VPN service stopping itself (or being stopped) after a minute.

Hello
my issue has been resolved.
there is a service called Base Filtering Services running in background for Vista and has to disabled to make IP Sec VPN Client working.
after doing so it works smoothly.

Cisco chs435hdc Er04 001

I have had Verizon Fios for a little over a month, and every so often upon turning on my new Cisco chs435hdc DVR and hitting the DVR button, an error message pops up saying Er04 001 and a countdown begins then the DVR turns itself off at the end of the countdown. Any help with this issue would be fantastic.
Thank you

Todd:
I have had the same issue for months and the response from Anthony at Verizon is typical. He doesn't address your issue because he has no idea what the issue is. If you Google this error message, surprisingly, you will find little to no information, except for maybe my similar posts on this forum from several months ago. I have talked to numerous Verizon support people. Most have no idea, but I did find a guy who was aware of the issue and said they were working on it. I even sent him some diagnostic information, but I never heard back and the issue is still happening for me.
I can tell you that it is not a box issue, I've returned my box and the same thing happens on the new box. I thought it might be a signal issue, but Verizon is telling me it is a software issue. The part that upsets me, though, is Verizon does not have a list of error messages from Cisco for this box and they don't even know what it means. Seriously. Which is beyond ridiculous when you consider how much money Verizon is paying Cisco for this equipment. If you go to Cisco's site, this model number does not show up under their list of cable boxes. But if you try hard enough, you can find the user guide to the box on the Web, but it does not have a list of error messages.
The frustrating thing about this whole saga is that the error will happen randomly and it never happens when I'm actually watching FiOS. Usually, when I get home from work and turn on the TV, the error message appears. This morning, when I turned on the TV it happened again.
Hear that Verizon? Your users are frustrated. And they seem to know more about the error message than you.

Partial System Freeze - ssh remote login still works

Hi,
I have experiencing the following odd thing several times during the past three months:
Out of a sudden, my system stops responding. I can move the mouse but cannot click anywhere or use the keyboard.
The system beneath seems to keep working normally, as to say, iTunes keeps playing, Mail is receiving Mails every 5 minutes (i get the mail received sound). But I cannot do anything with input devices - not with external nor internal ones on the Mac Book Pro.
I then turned on SSH access and when it happened again, logged into my account from another computer.
I ran "top", but it showed no frozen processes whatsoever.
I tried restarting SystemUIServer, which had no effect, then restarting WindowServer, which logged me out and in, so everything worked again, but my work was lost, because all programs where closed (obviously).
After login, I cannot find anything in console.log or system.log besides the ssh login and the restart of windowserver/loginwindow.
Since I have a lot of background processes (esp. vmware and parallels drivers) it is hard to tell if any of these have to do with it. On the other hand, I have not been installing new persistant stuff during the last time.
Has anybody experienced such a thing?
Thanks a lot
Simon

SG300-28 SSH incoming packet was garbled on decryption

I use PuTTY to SSH into Cisco switches regularly. Today I ran into the message 'incoming packet was garbled on decryption'. I logged into the switch via HTTP and saw the uptime was 115 days. After seeing I could PuTTY into the SG-300-28P right above it, I just rebooted the bottom switch, and then PuTTY instantly connected via SSH and everything was fine. The connection settings were stored in a profile so the settings were fine. I was just wondering if anyone else has ever seen this. I am fine rebooting every 115 days if it happens again. FW is 1.2.7.76. On a similar note, the Save icon quit blinking on the 28P right around the 115 day uptime mark. A reboot resumed the icon blinking. Not a huge issue, but when I see that I wonder what else the switch might be doing that I don't know about.
Another question is this: Is the SLM2024PT-NA the same as a SG200-26? I'm putting one in thursday and it will be my first of the 'smart' switch line. I ask because if I search for SLM2024 on Cisco's website I see another switch that was apparently made before the SG line came out, but it doesn't have the -NA suffix in its model.

Hello Mr. Hackbarth,
There is a known problem when OpenSSH has been built against an incorrect version of OpenSSL; that causes this error message. The quick workaround is to configure PuTTY to use SSH protocol 2 and the Blowfish cipher.
Go to Connection -> SSH -> Protocol options. Set “Preferred SSH protocol version:” to SSH version 2.
Go to Connection -> SSH -> Encryption options. Promote Blowfish to the top of the list of “Encryption cipher selection policy:”
I hope this infomation helps you.

SSH failures - auto-block by ip?

I know there are several ways to auto-block IPs of failed SSH dictionary attckers on Linux, are there any such scripts or apps for Xserve?
I've looked at several of the Linux scripts, and most of them are specific to the distribution they are written for. I'm not a programmer, not even a shell scripter, so building custom stuff is a bit beyond me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, since my server is going live on Monday (in a datacenter which has caused me script-kiddie trouble in the past, but it's my only option currently) and I want to be as protected as possible.
Turning off SSH is really not an option, since I'm going to be doing all server administration from my home, and I'll have minimal site access.
Thanks,
-Gregg

Another thought I had was simply remapping SSH to
port 9922 and removing it from port 22 - effectively
"hiding" it from the dictionary attacks and script
kiddies.
Which doesn't protect you from weak passports. I'd disable all but pubkey auth method in sshd_config.
Changing the default ssh port in tiger is quite tricky beacause ssh is launched by launchd. Launchd is listening for connections on the port defined by the pair i) SockServiceName in sshd.plist and ii) the corresponding port value for ssh in /etc/services. These values have to be changed to your port of choice and I suggest to maintain the ascending sorted list and place the changed lines at the end.
