SFG does not accept any host key except RSA and DSS. Also there should be a configuration mechanism for ciphers.

SFG does not support any client Known Host Key except RSA and DSS. Now a days a significant number of clients are using Open SSH which uses ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 as the primary cipher and unfortunately SFG does not support that.

We have at least 10 very important clients who needs support for ecdsa-sha2-nistp256. I had created a PMR and I was told to create an enhancement request. Please provide a solution, since it is so critical to our client base.
