Lab 10 (Switch Configuration - SSH Connection)

This document provides instructions for configuring a secure SSH connection on a router in a simple network topology using Packet Tracer. The steps include setting up the topology with a router and host, configuring the host's IP address and default gateway, verifying connectivity with ping, configuring SSH on the router, and testing the encrypted SSH connection from the host using the ssh command and entering the password set on the router.

Lab 10
Switch Configuration - Secure Shell (SSH)

Co-Authored by Michaela Pawlowski

After you complete each step, put an ‘x’ in the completed box.

Objective: Create a simple topology to configure and test an encrypted SSH connection.

1. Set up the following Packet Tracer topology.

2. Navigate to the router’s CLI and enter the following commands.


3. Configure the host’s IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway so that it can communicate
with the router.

4. Verify that the host can talk to the router with a ping.

5. We will now configure SSH on our router. Navigate to the router’s CLI again and enter the
following commands.
6. Now that our SSH configuration has been set up, we can test the connectivity. Enter the following
command into the host’s command prompt. You will be prompted to enter the password you set
earlier.

Note on the command: ssh – l (l for lima) ……..

7. If you executed all steps successfully, you should see the router’s Admin prompt after entering
your SSH password. If you can’t connect, troubleshoot!

Attach a screenshot of your successful SSH connection!
