Note: The new version 21.1.1.4 code released last week for EXOS has SSH slipstreamed and embedded into the base OS and you do not need to do anything with the SSH XMOD. On code 16.x here is what I have done. You do not need to do a reboot for SSH to work.
download image memorycard [ie summitX-16.1.3.6-ssh.xmod]
#Command 'show management' will show SSH is not installed
run update
restart process thttpd
restart process snmpMaster
#Command 'show management' will show SSH installed but disabled with an invalid key
enable ssh2
#Command 'show management' will show SSH Enabled (Key valid, tcp port 22 vr all)
download image memorycard
#Command 'show management' will show SSH is not installed
run update
restart process thttpd
restart process snmpMaster
#Command 'show management' will show SSH installed but disabled with an invalid key
enable ssh2
#Command 'show management' will show SSH Enabled (Key valid, tcp port 22 vr all)

from my notes (for x350 with old firmware):
1) download correct ssh.xmod version for Your switch
* switch4.5 # show switch
Primary ver: 12.6.2.10
Config Selected: primary.cfg
Config Booted: primary.cfg
2) start tftp on you LAN pc (for me it working on IP:192.168.1.159)
* switch4.6 # download image 192.168.1.159 summitX-12.6.2.10-patch1-15-ssh.xmod vr "VR-Default" primary
Do you want to install image after downloading? (y - yes, n - no, - cancel) Yes
Downloading to Switch.......
This image will be used only after rebooting the switch!
Installing to primary partition!
Installing to Switch............................................................
SSL will be usable after restart of thttpd process. Restart snmpMaster process to use AES/3DES users for SNMPv3.
Image installed successfully
* switch4.7 # run update
* switch4.8 # reboot
Do you want to save configuration changes to currently selected configuration
file (primary.cfg) and reboot?
(y - save and reboot, n - reboot without save, - cancel command) Yes
Saving configuration on master ............................ done!
That it. Do you want to save configuration changes to currently selected configuration
file (primary.cfg) and reboot?
(y - save and reboot, n - reboot without save, - cancel command) Yes
Saving configuration on master ............................ done!
It help me, hope You too.

Hello Sikander,
There should be a link for the SSH xmod on the same page of eSupport as the other images that you have downloaded. The link will go to a site where you can apply for the xmod. The xmod is under governance of US Trade Restriction and we run a check on the applicant. After trade compliance has passed, you will be emailed a link to download the xmod. TFTP that xmod to your switch just like you were downloading another image version, for example
download image
After you download the file, use the command
run update
That will load the xmod into memory
To verify this is all done correctly, use the command
show management
and you can see if the SSH xmod is loaded.
