SSH not working after Restoring Running-Config to a Replacement Cisco Router
- by Kyle Brandt
One of my Cisco routers died over the weekend, Cisco sent the replacement and I restored the the config using copy tftp: running-config. Everything seems to work fine but I can no longer ssh into the router (I can telnet). The connection is refused, so it isn't listening on port 22 it seems like.
I had previously backed up the config by just doing ssh router 'show run' > backup_config from my workstation.
So:
Is there anything wrong with my method of backup vs copy running-config tftp:?
I know I haven't given any debug information, but is there something typical I need to do to get ssh working?
