Secure Shell - Enhancements

Enhancements

These are intended for performance enhancements of SSH products:

  • SSH-over-SCTP: support for SCTP rather than TCP as the connection oriented transport layer protocol.
  • ECDSA: support for elliptic curve DSA rather than DSA or RSA for signing.
  • ECDH: support for elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman rather than plain Diffie-Hellman for encryption key exchange.
  • UMAC: support for UMAC rather than HMAC for MAC/integrity.
