SSHMacAlgorithms Property

A comma-separated list containing all allowable message authentication algorithms.

Syntax

sshclientcontrol.SSHMacAlgorithms[=string]

Default Value

"hmac-sha1,hmac-md5,hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512,hmac-ripemd160,hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96,hmac-sha2-256-96,hmac-sha2-512-96,hmac-ripemd160-96"

Remarks

SSH allows different algorithms to be negotiated for use when establishing the security layer of the connection. SSHMacAlgorithms controls the message authentication code (MAC) algorithm list supplied by the control to the SSHHost. It is a comma-separated list containing the names of MAC algorithms as defined by section 6.4 of the SSH Transport Layer specification (RFC 4253).

The value of this property must be a comma-separated list containing one or more of the following values:

• hmac-sha1
• hmac-md5
• hmac-sha1-96
• hmac-md5-96
• hmac-sha2-256
• hmac-sha2-256-96
• hmac-sha2-512
• hmac-sha2-512-96
• hmac-ripemd160
• hmac-ripemd160-96
