+.Sh NAME
+.Nm moduli
+.Nd system moduli file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Pa /etc/moduli
+file contains the system-wide Diffie-Hellman prime moduli for the
+.Xr photurisd 8
+and
+.Xr sshd 8
+programs.
+.Pp
+Each line in this file contains the following fields:
+Time, Type, Tests, Tries, Size, Generator, Modulus.
+The fields are separated by white space (tab or blank).
+.Pp
+.Fa Time : yyyymmddhhmmss .
+Specifies the system time that the line was appended to the file.
+The value 00000000000000 means unknown (historic).
+.\"The file is sorted in ascending order.
+.Pp
+.Fa Type : decimal .
+Specifies the internal structure of the prime modulus.
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset indent -compact
+.It 0 :
+unknown;
+often learned from peer during protocol operation,
+and saved for later analysis.
+.It 1 :
+unstructured;
+a common large number.
+.It 2 :
+safe (p = 2q + 1);
+meets basic structural requirements.
+.It 3 :
+Schnorr.
+.It 4 :
+Sophie-Germaine (q = (p-1)/2);
+usually generated in the process of testing safe or strong primes.
+.It 5 :
+strong;
+useful for RSA public key generation.
+.El
+.Pp
+.Fa Tests : decimal (bit field) .
+Specifies the methods used in checking for primality.
+Usually, more than one test is used.
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset indent -compact
+.It 0 :
+not tested;
+often learned from peer during protocol operation,
+and saved for later analysis.
+.It 1 :
+composite;
+failed one or more tests.
+In this case, the highest bit specifies the test that failed.
+.It 2 :
+sieve;
+checked for division by a range of smaller primes.
+.It 4 :
+Miller-Rabin.
+.It 8 :
+Jacobi.
+.It 16 :
+Elliptic Curve.
+.El
+.Pp
+.Fa Tries : decimal .
+Depends on the value of the highest valid Test bit,
+where the method specified is:
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset indent -compact
+.It 0 :
+not tested
+(always zero).
+.It 1 :
+composite
+(irrelevant).
+.It 2 :
+sieve;
+number of primes sieved.
+Commonly on the order of 32,000,000.
+.It 4 :
+Miller-Rabin;
+number of M-R iterations.
+Commonly on the order of 32 to 64.
+.It 8 :
+Jacobi;
+unknown
+(always zero).
+.It 16 :
+Elliptic Curve;
+unused
+(always zero).
+.El
+.Pp
+.Fa Size : decimal .
+Specifies the number of significant bits.
+.Pp
+.Fa Generator : hex string .
+Specifies the best generator for a Diffie-Hellman exchange.
+0 = unknown or variable,
+2, 3, 5, etc.
+.Pp
+.Fa Modulus : hex string .
+The prime modulus.
+.Pp
+The file is searched for moduli that meet the appropriate
+Time, Size and Generator criteria.
+When more than one meet the criteria,
+the selection should be weighted toward newer moduli,
+without completely disqualifying older moduli.
