GetMutualAuthKeyLengthTLS method (ILEADDicomNet)

VB.NET example	C# example
Visual Basic example	Visual C++ 5.0 example

Syntax	long GetMutualAuthKeyLengthTLS(long hNet, long nCipher);
Overview	Refer to Negotiating a Ciphersuite

Remarks

(Medical Imaging Suite only) Returns the effective length (in bits) of the mutual authentication key associated with the specified ciphersuite.

The usual sizes for a RSA key is 512 and 1024 bits. There is a limitation for import in Europe – a RSA key must be at least 768 bits long. There are no known export restrictions. In addition, the length of the mutual authentication key can be found only after a successful call to the SetClientCertificateTLS or SetServerCertificateTLS method.
