SetSSHParam Method
Used to write a field to the end of a payload.
Syntax
[VB.NET] Public Function SetSSHParam(ByVal Payload As String, ByVal FieldType As String, ByVal FieldValue As String) As String
[C#] public byte[] SetSSHParam(byte[] payload, string fieldType, string fieldValue);
Remarks
This method is used to build the payload portion of an SSH packet to be sent later by a call to SendSSHPacket. Payload should contain the result of a previous call to SetSSHParam. FieldType is a string defining the type of field to be written to the packet. FieldValue should be the string representation of the field to be written.
The following is a list of supported field types and a description of how FieldValue should be encoded:
| s | A plaintext string containing the default system encoding of the data. |
| sb | A string containing the hex encoded data. (eg: "A1B23C") |
| m | A variable-length large integer, encoded as a textual representation of the value ("1234"). |
| i | A 32-bit integer, encoded as a textual representation of the value (eg: "1234"). |
| l | A 64-bit integer, encoded as a textual representation of the value (eg: "1234"). |
| b | A single byte, encoded as a textual representation of the value (eg: "123"). |
| f | A boolean flag, encoded as a textual representation of the value (eg: 'true' or 'false') |
Note: integer values may be encoded in hexadecimal by prefixing "0x" to the beginning of the string, otherwise the value is assumed to be base-10.
Note: This method is only applicable for reading and creating SSH packets for use within the SSHCustomAuth event.
