Not if you are a citizen of an EU or Schengen Area country which issues national identity cards, then you can enter Switzerland using that identity card. Otherwise you need a passport.

If you are entering Switzerland via the land borders there are not normally any passport / ID card checks, as Switzerland and all countries bordering it are members of the Schengen Area. But you still need to carry your passport or ID card as this is a legal requirement in Switzerland, and you might be unlucky and get asked to show it at the border.

How many months left on your passport do you need to travel to Switzerland?

It depends on your nationality. Switzerland is part of the Schengen Area. If you have an EU or Schengen area passport, there is no minimum validity. You can even travel to Switzerland on your national identity card, if you are from a country that issues them. If you are from a non-Schengen/EU country you need a validity of at least 3 months on your passport, and if you need a visa then you also need 2 blank pages on your passport.

How many months on a European passport to travel to Geneva?

Assuming by a "European passport" you mean a passport from a country which is a member of the EU; then the answer is none. Switzerland is a member of the Schengen agreement. All EU citizens (plus those of other Schengen member countries) are free to travel to Switzerland with a valid passport or national identity card without restriction.
