Can anyone break this down into simple words. as to whatA Diffie-Hellman key consists of four values: p, a large prime, g, a primitive element under mod p, d, a random number between 1 and p-2, and e, which is g^d mod p.
p,g,d and e are? p i understand is a large prime i.e. a number that cant be divided by any number except 1 and itself. d is fine a random number, i understand that.
g---? whats "primitive"?
