Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
I don't know about the performance issue, that sounds like a "feature" since a 3640 shouldn't have much trouble handling that. As far as disabling telnet, the only way I know of is not to set a vty password. While not disabling the telnet server, it will prevent any attempts to telnet to the router.

I've implemented SSH features on one of our ACCESS servers and I notice that it is very slow. The access server is a Cisco 3640 with 128MB RAM.

Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
Hmm...it looks like the presence of the login and authorization commands is fulfilling the requirement for a password to be configured on those lines. Ok, I'll go back to pondering then. Could you add an access list to block incoming traffic to port 23? That might accomplish the same goal. There must be another way, though. I'll let you know if I think of something.

Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
Sean - try a show proc cpu and see what's going on... it will give you an indication of what's going on inside the router. If it isn't a cpu problem, then you'll have to look at the interface(s) and see if the performance hit is happening there. (in other words, you'll have to isolate the problem - it MIGHT be the router, but it also might NOT) pay special attention to any of the processes that deal with ssh - the exec may also play some part in this performance degradation Keep looking to turn off telnet... and I'll ask my network operations engineers how they did it (probably an inbound access list denying port 23 traffic and allowing SSH traffic applied to the vty's... that would be my guess without looking any research...) - Original Message - From: John Neiberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2001 7:20 AM Subject: Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented > I don't know about the performance issue, that sounds like a "feature" > since a 3640 shouldn't have much trouble handling that. > > As far as disabling telnet, the only way I know of is not to set a vty > password.

Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
Why not try to throw an access list on it that blocks the incoming telnet port? I submit that I haven't read the document either so that might be a stupid suggestion :-) At 09:16 AM 3/27/01, you wrote: >Hope I am not offending you but did you read the document before giving >me advice or do you just give it out of the blue?

Re: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
EA. Thanks for the tip. The access server is residing on the test network with only 3 devices (TACACS, access server and a windows client) so I don't think there are any problems as far as the performance is concern. I also check the process on the router and SSH and TACACS are not using that much resources there. I prefer not to use access-list so if you come up with any new tips, I would be glad to test them out.

RE: Cisco router is running very slow when SSh is implmented
I was going to suggest the use of an access class ... applied to the vty lines ... but thanks for the transport input line! < that outbound telnet from all boxes on the LAN would be blocked as well; as there 'responses' would get dropped at the router ... hence the use of access classes ...>> Regarding the slow SSH ... have you run a sniffer on that segment to watch the packets, and see if there is some disagreement between your router and TACACS+ server ... or see if the TACACS_ server itself is causing the delay ... ?
