No SSH option with Packet Tracer 5.3.1?

So I'm working thru the CTTC Cisco CCNA Lab manual and there are a couple of exercises of using SSH to go from pc to router.
I am able to Telnet from various devices ok, however I'm guessing by Google searches that SSH isn't an option in Packet Tracer.
thanks

OptionsJockVSJock Member Posts: 1,118I've glanced at GNS3. Looks a bit more time consuming to setup Vs Packet Tracer.***Freedom of Speech, Just Watch What You Say*** Example, Beware of CompTIA Certs (Deleted From Google Cached)

However, if you were desperate for SSH it should do the job. I might go buy a physical lab before attempting that GNS3 setup. -

I'm in the military overseas and don't think I have the space nor the ability to really move it around with me. I have a few routers/switches, but they are in storage back in the states.***Freedom of Speech, Just Watch What You Say*** Example, Beware of CompTIA Certs (Deleted From Google Cached)

Optionstengu Member Posts: 13 ■□□□□□□□□□Packet Tracer 5.3.1 is able to do SSH to routers and L3 switches. Works the same on PT as it does on my real gear. Maybe you are missing a command?

OptionsMosGuy Member Posts: 195Try using a 3650 switch or the 1841 router. They support SSH commands in packet tracer, but may not simulate all options that GNS3 would.---

OptionsJockVSJock Member Posts: 1,118Yes, it looks like if you use certain switches in Packet Tracer, they do have the option for SSH. Did find a few videos on youtube that gave demos.
I'll lab later today and will try to post back my results.

OptionsJockVSJock Member Posts: 1,118Looks like the 3560-24PS Multilayer Switch has SSH on it in Packet Tracer.
I was able to run the following commands ok on it:ip domain name cisco.com crypto key generate rsa

OptionsLtat42a Member Posts: 587 ■■■□□□□□□□Attached is an activity that is included with Packet Tracer. I did this in 5.3.2.0027. I got a 100% complete by using the commands listed in this word doc. On the last page is a test to see if SSH is working. This activity has you telnet from router to router, not PC to router, but the SSH config seems to work.
