The DiffieHellmanGroup
class takes a well-known modp group as its argument but
otherwise works the same as DiffieHellman
.
const name = 'modp1';
const dh = crypto.createDiffieHellmanGroup(name);
name
is taken from [RFC 2412][] (modp1 and 2) and [RFC 3526][]:
$ perl -ne 'print "$1\n" if /"(modp\d+)"/' src/node_crypto_groups.h
modp1 # 768 bits
modp2 # 1024 bits
modp5 # 1536 bits
modp14 # 2048 bits
modp15 # etc.
modp16
modp17
modp18
