Answer Wiki:
First configure the hostname and a domain <b>hostname My-Router ip domain-name My-Company.com</b> Then generate your SSH keys <b>cry key generate rsa</b> Create some usernames and passwords <b>username Fred secret Wilma</b> Do as many of these as you need, and they can also apply the level that this gives them access. IT can also be centralised using TACACS+ or RADIUS. Then configure the vty ports for SSH <b>line vty 0 4 login local transport input ssh</b> That should get things working for you. If I have forgotten anything (which I don't think I have) I am sure someone will correct me ;-)

What router are you using?

Doesn’t really matter – it is a Cisco, so uses IOS, and the commands are the same for almost all of them.
