SSH to CISCO SWITCH
I need to connect (SSH) to a REMOTE SWITCH with no config on it. After connecting I need to do the full config of the SW. With the help of non IT person, who can console it to SW and input some basic conf so that I can SSH to the remote sw. I make this config, could anyone have a look and see if this works, as this is the first time I am doing this. Should I be able to SSH to the NEw Sw with this config?
I have a existing network at the location, router and sw. In this case I need to connect New SW to the OLD SW.
Router > OLD SW>NEW SW
-------------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- -
interface GigabitEthernet0/1 (Goes to the trunk port of OLD SW)
switchport mode trunk
speed 100
duplex full
!
!
interface Vlan111 (Managment VLAN)
ip address x.x.x.x 255.255.255.0
no ip route-cache
ip default-gateway x.x.x.x
--------------
For config the SSH
ip domain-name test.net
line vty 0 4
login
transport input ssh
and need to generate key with command:
crypto key generate rsa 1024

Thanks for your reply guys, but in the network we are using TACACS server to auth. My question if I attach the switch to the network with no config and then add the upper part (with no username/password), would I be able to ssh to the sw with with credentials on the TACACS server?
