in CCNA & CCENT
I am trying to configure SSH on my c2950 switch, but from what I have read online it looks like my IOS version is not compatible w/SSH. I am using IOS Version 12.1. This all initially came about when I was following Jeremy @ CBTNuggets & he said to key in 'crypto key generate rsa' but I got nada except an error message. My question is, is there a way I can update my IOS version so that is compatible to work with SSH or am I forced to purchase a different type of Switch in order to accomplish this? Lend me your wisdom, and thank you so much.

I saw a post earlier where someone stated that Switch IOS's are available from Cisco. You should be able to upgrade the IOS on it. -

As stated, Cisco let's you download IOS for switches, just not for routers. I downloaded the newest IOS with Encryption [tar] and installed it on all my 2950s.R&S: CCENT → CCNA → CCNP → CCIE [ ]
Security: CCNA [ ]
Virtualization: VCA-DCV [ ]
