Connection refused ssh catalyst 6509

brad.thurston · ‎06-28-2007

I am having an issue with our cat6509 switch, running ios not catos. I am unable to make a ssh connection. I verified the settings look fine. I checked to make sure i didnt have any hung sessions. That looks fine also. Anyone ever have a similar problem? Not sure where to check next.

Brad,

Please paste the switch configuration. If SSH is configured properly, have you allowed it on the VTY lines. Please do the following:

config t

line vty 0 4

transport input all or transport input ssh

HTH,

That was already done. I am posting partials here:

I am unable to kill the vty idle connections

Did you try "clear line vty X " command ? May be a bug .

Brad,

Have you generated your crypto key. Please refer to the following url for the SSH configuration steps.
