moduli

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Defines the Diffie-Hellman prime moduli configuration for group exchange. The configuration dynamically generates prime moduli for the existing DH group exchange algorithms such as group-exchange-sha1 and group-exchange-sha2. The qbufd process is responsible for managing the moduli generation. If you don't configure the moduli, SSH uses the default moduli that OpenSSH provides.

Options

moduli type name

Specify the name of the prime modulus.

Values: designer or safe.

refresh frequency

Specify the refresh frequency for generating the moduli periodically.

Values: monthly or weekly.

count count

(Optional) Specify the number of prime moduli to generate.

Values: minimum 1, maximum 4.

Default: 2

Note that FIPS mode doesn't support moduli.

Required Privilege Level
