Note that the nsca daemon must use the same # password when decrypting the packet! # IMPORTANT: You don't want all the users on this system to be able # to read the password you specify here, so make sure to set # restrictive permissions on this config file! #password= # ENCRYPTION METHOD # This option determines the method by which the send_nsca client will # encrypt the packets it sends to the nsca daemon. The encryption # method you choose will be a balance between security and performance, # as strong encryption methods consume more processor resources. # You should evaluate your security needs when choosing an encryption # method. # # Note: The encryption method you specify here must match the # decryption method the nsca daemon uses (as specified in # the nsca.cfg file)!! # Values: # 0 = None (Do NOT use this option) # 1 = Simple XOR (No security, just obfuscation, but very fast) # # 2 = DES # 3 = 3DES (Triple DES) # 4 = CAST-128 # 5 = CAST-256 # 6 = xTEA # 7 = 3WAY # 8 = BLOWFISH # 9 = TWOFISH # 10 = LOKI97 # 11 = RC2 # 12 = ARCFOUR # # 14 = RIJNDAEL-128 # 15 = RIJNDAEL-192 # 16 = RIJNDAEL-256 # # 19 = WAKE # 20 = SERPENT # # 22 = ENIGMA (Unix crypt) # 23 = GOST # 24 = SAFER64 # 25 = SAFER128 # 26 = SAFER+ # encryption_method=1
