twisted.conch.ssh.transport : API documentation

The lowest level SSH protocol. This handles the key negotiation, the encryption and the compression. The transport layer is described in RFC 4253.

Maintainer: Paul Swartz

Class	SSHCiphers	SSHCiphers represents all the encryption operations that need to occur to encrypt and authenticate the SSH connection.
Class	SSHTransportBase	Protocol supporting basic SSH functionality: sending/receiving packets and message dispatch. To connect to or run a server, you must use SSHClientTransport or SSHServerTransport.
Class	SSHServerTransport	SSHServerTransport implements the server side of the SSH protocol.
Class	SSHClientTransport	SSHClientTransport implements the client side of the SSH protocol.
Class	_MACParams	`_MACParams` represents the parameters necessary to compute SSH MAC (Message Authenticate Codes).
Function	_getSupportedCiphers	Build a list of ciphers that are supported by the backend in use.
Class	_NullEncryptionContext	An encryption context that does not actually encrypt anything.
Class	_DummyAlgorithm	An encryption algorithm that does not actually encrypt anything.
Class	_DummyCipher	A cipher for the none encryption method.

def _getSupportedCiphers(): (source)

Build a list of ciphers that are supported by the backend in use.

Returns a list of supported ciphers. (type: list of str)
