SSH is available on the higher end IOS.  I have the enterprise yadda
yadda yadda running on mine at home and it has SSH.  And telnet is
not so super bad if you know how to secure it.  Please no flames on
that comment.  Telnet can be used if a person has other layers of
security (using a switched network, strong user names and passwords,
proactively monitoring for sniffing).

Probably proactively monitoring for sniffing is the biggest since the
data is in plain text.  Use weak passwords with SSH and your router
can be hacked just as easily as with telnet (excluding acls and
things of that nature).

Cheers,

Leon

Subject: Securing Access to Cisco Routers

I have been tasked with finding a solution to replace telnet for
router 
access to a large group of Cisco Routers.  Is SSH available for Cisco
Routers or does anyone have a preferred solution for doing away with 
the vulnerability associated with telnet and core infrastructure 
components?
