Functions

func AvailableEntropy

func AvailableEntropy() int

this method will return available entropy in the system if error found, a -1 is returned

func HasCriticalValue

func HasCriticalValue() bool

This command shows you how much entropy your server has collected. If it is rather low (<1000), you should probably install haveged. Otherwise cryptographic applications will block until there is enough entropy available which eg. could result in slow wlan speed, if your server is a Software access point. sudo apt-get install haveged.

func InitialEntropy

func InitialEntropy() int

return first loaded available entropy measure
