DESCRIPTION
       The  and files contain tables showing installed security mechanisms and
       the Quality of Protection (QOP)	associated  with  them,	 respectively.

       cally;  for  example,  manually with cat(1) or more(1), or programmati‐
       cally	   with	      either	   rpc_gss_get_mechanisms(3N)	    or
       rpc_gss_get_mech_info(3N).

	      mechanism name	  ASCII string representing the mechanism.
