Hi I need help in openssl random seed genertion. We use the genrsa command to generate keys and certificates and we want to ensure the entropy of the random number being generated is having a high entropy.
we need to know how does openssl while genrting the key using the command genrsa will generate the random number and of what bytes does it. How can we improve the entropy before generating the key, we use dev/urandom and its been said that there is an options like rand_add and rand_seed. How do I call these API's using the shell script before generating the keys to ensure high entropy is achieved. Also how do I output the random seed generated to check for the entropy. appreciate your help on this.
