Hi Lilah,
To place a device into the Cisco IOS - SSH Capable family, the following conditions must be met:
- The device descriptor must indicate a firmware version of 12.2 (18) or greater.
- The feature set must contain letters "K9" indicating the device has the necessary encryption functionality that is needed for SCP.
- SSH access for the device must be unblocked at the time of discovery.
Note: If SSH access to the device is blocked (for example, with a firewall) at the time of discovery, put the device in the Cisco IOS device family.
For example, a device with the following description is placed in the Cisco IOS - SSH Capable family:
Cisco IOS Software, 7200 Software (C7200-JK9S-M), Version 12.3(14)T6, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)Technical

A device with the following description is placed in the Cisco IOS family and is not capable of obtaining configurations using SSH/SCP:
