How do I enable SSH on my 2960?

On the switch it tells me:
mydomain.net#show ip ssh
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

When I try to SSH to it from another server I get:
# ssh 205.xx.xx.xx
ssh: connect to host 205.xx.xx.xx port 22: Connection refused

TIA!

You must have an image that will support crypto funtions. If it does, set s domain name, change the hostname to something non-default and generate keys buy entering the command crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024. Then enable aaa with aaa new-model and configure a username and password.

Thank you for your reply.

Is 12.2 my IOS version?

This is what my running-config shows:
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 1608 bytes
!
version 12.2

Offhand do you know if that version supports SSH?

Cisco Feature Navigator is your friend:

Click "Search by Feature", then find the "secure shell" stuff that applies to you (most likely "Secure shell version x server support") on the left side, add it to the right, then click "Continue", then select your platform under the dropdown menu...

It's not the IOS verson as such that determines features and services within an IOS version but something called the "Feature Set".

See Mr Stretch's IOS cheatsheet on his PacketLife website - the bottom left shows the FeatureSet IOS structure.

I'm sure he won't mind if you download the PDF version either.

Typically the IPBase featureset does not contain SSH.

Looks like crypto won't work, this means SSH is not possible?

switch.mydmain.net(config)#crypto
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Yup, that is what I was looking for. That IOS does not support SSH.
