Hi,

I am running the below servers on Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.7
(Ootpa). The details are as follows.

# rpm -qa | grep openssh
openssh-8.0p1-16.el8.x86_64
openssh-askpass-8.0p1-16.el8.x86_64
openssh-server-8.0p1-16.el8.x86_64
openssh-clients-8.0p1-16.el8.x86_64

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.7 (Ootpa)
#

How do I enable strong KexAlgorithms, Ciphers and MACs in
/etc/ssh/sshd_config file as per the above ssh server version. For example
as per below setting.

KexAlgorithms
ecdh-sha2-nistp521,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
Ciphers [email protected],[email protected],
[email protected],aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr
MACs [email protected],[email protected],
[email protected],hmac-sha2-512,hmac-sha2-256,[email protected]

Please guide me.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Kaushal
