SSHKeyTypes Enumeration


List of available key types used by wodKeys.

Remarks

SSH2 protocol specification defines RSA cipher as default, and it should be supported by all clients/servers, so it is advised you should use it. However, there are servers that prefer DSA algorithm to be used (due to RSA patent, which has in the meantime expired). EC (Elliptic Curve algorithms have been added in 2013).
Generate and Load methods support all of these types.

List of available key types used by wodKeys:
