Catalyst WS-C2950-24-RF support is ending less than a year.
Is there a way to install a SSH supporting IOS without getting the support contract for it?
My refurbished one currently doesn't and I don't want to buy a contract when Cisco is going to discontinue support for it in less than a year.
Thanks.

Do you have a CCO account and have you tried to download the crypto code ?

I do and I was just able to download the tar and bin files (that has crypto) for the switch.
Seems they give those out for free since it's going out of service?
I looked articles to upgrade via tftp. Now my switch can't ping the host with tftp on it.
How do I give address and all that to the switch?
Thanks.

Hi,
See this example below:
#conf t 2950(config)#int vlan 1 !--- This example uses a FastEthernet interface in management VLAN 1. 2950(config-if)#ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0 !--- This IP address must ideally be in the same subnet as the !--- TFTP server. In this example, the 2950 and the TFTP server !--- are on different subnets. 2950(config-if)#no shut 2950(config-if)#exit 2950(config)#ip default-gateway 10.10.10.129 !--- Issue this command as one way to establish connectivity !--- to a TFTP server on a different subnet or network. 2950(config)#end 2950# 2950#ping 20.20.20.2 !--- Ping the IP address of the TFTP server from the switch !--- to verify connectivity. Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.20.20.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/3/4 ms 2950#
Hope this helps.

"By the way, I'm having vlan and ip address crisis.
Router has DHCP and it's default router/gateway. It's vlan1 has address.
Switch relays DHCP from the router and has its own vlan1 address.
Do those vlan1 address have to be the same?
And for both the router and the switch, shall both have the same default gateway/router of the router itself?
Thanks."
Please ignore all these as I was able to upgrade via my tftp.
Now I set "transprot input ssh."
But my username and password are not working!!
