NAME
ualea —
Araneus Alea II USB TRNG
SYNOPSIS
ualea* at uhub?
DESCRIPTION
The ualea driver provides support for the
Araneus Alea II, a USB true random number generator (TRNG). It delivers
100kbit/sec of hardware-generated entropy. ualea
reads raw entropy from the Alea II and uses
add_true_randomness(9) to add it to the system entropy
pool.
The product documentation states that the USB interface used by the Alea II is the same as that used by its predecessor the Alea I; theoretically this means that the Alea I should work but this has not been tested.
