Increase Key Exchange Security

We have a merchant who can't complete connectivity to SSP SFTP because they don't support the Key Exchange we currently have available.

Their preference would be to use these kex protocols:
ecdh-sha2-nistp256 ephemeral-ephemeral elliptic curve
Diffie-Hellman on nistp256 with SHA-256
or
ecdh-sha2-nistp384 ephemeral-ephemeral elliptic curve
Diffie-Hellman on nistp384 with SHA-384

SSP only supports:
diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
diffe-hellman-group14-sha1
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1
