Hello to all,

if your like me, you enjoy thinking some good thing is happening when your

good to know:

Introduction
Secure Shell (SSH) is a widely used Transport Layer Protocol to secure
connections between clients and servers. SSH is the underlying protocol
that Teleport uses to secure connections between clients and servers. Below
is a relatively brief description of the handshake that occurs to establish
a secure channel between a client and a server.

Names the negotiated algo names of methods too. Quite a few tables of whats
inside this commonly applied, obviously very competent work....
