cannot configure SSH on Cisco 1841

[gmail2]

Hi All

I want to configure SSH on a newly installed Cisco 1841 router. I've tried to configure it using various instructions on the net (all pretty much the same) but the crypto command does not exist. Does this men the device is missing a package ? I've done a show tech-support and searched for 3DES but it's not in there.

Unfortunatley it's so long since I've done any cisco stuff, I've forgotten what little knowledge I had !! Can anybody assist at all ?

Thanks in advance !

You need to upgrade the IOS to a crypto image (will have "k9" in the image name).

Burt has said it all , download an image with a K9 in it which is the crypto version which supports SSH.

As Burt said maybe you need an IOS with IPSEC,please post a "show ver" of your present IOS so we can verify.The below is the minimum conf to get SSH running.

conf t
ip domain name "yourname.com"
crypto key generate rsa
1024
line vty 0 4
transport input ssh
or
transport input all
