.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
This is an algorithm alleged to be Rivest's RC4 encryption function. It is
|
||
|
|
a pseudo-random number generator with a 256 byte state and a long
|
||
|
|
cycle. The input buffer is XOR'd with the output of the
|
||
|
|
generator both to encrypt and to decrypt. The seed, entered
|
||
|
|
using
|
||
|
|
.IR setupRC4state ,
|
||
|
|
can be any length. The generator can be run forward using
|
||
|
|
.IR rc4 ,
|
||
|
|
skip over bytes using
|
||
|
|
.I rc4skip
|
||
|
|
to account lost transmissions,
|
||
|
|
or run backwards using
|
||
|
|
.I rc4back
|
||
|
|
to cover retransmitted data.
|
||
|
|
The
|
||
|
|
.I RC4state
|
||
|
|
structure keeps track of the algorithm.
