GetIsclIndexForMutualAuthentication Method

Summary

Gets the index of the mutual authentication key used during the mutual authentication process.

Syntax

C++

public int GetIsclIndexForMutualAuthentication()

Public Function GetIsclIndexForMutualAuthentication() As Integer

public: 
int GetIsclIndexForMutualAuthentication();

Return Value

The index for the key used for mutual authentication. This value is between 1 and 8, inclusively, where 1 represents the first key in the array of mutual authentication keys.

Remarks

This method gets the index of the actual key used for mutual authentication operations. This index can be between 1 and 8, inclusively.

Example

This is a comprehensive sample that shows how to use DICOM Secure communication using ISCL.
