Scope

This document describes algorithms based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) for use within the Secure Shell (SSH) transport protocol. In particular@ it specifies Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key agreement@ Elliptic Curve Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (ECMQV) key agreement@ and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) for use in the SSH Transport Layer protocol.
