L_DicomGetKeyExchangeAlgorithmTLS

#include "ltdic.h"

L_UINT32 L_DicomGetKeyExchangeAlgorithmTLS(hNet, cipher)

HDICOMNET hNet;

/* handle to an existing DICOM Network */

L_CIPHERSUITE cipher;

/* ciphersuite */

Returns a value that represents the key exchange algorithm. This function is available in the Medical Suite Toolkit

Parameter

Description

hNet

Handle to an existing DICOM Network. This is the handle returned from the L_DicomCreateNet function.

cipher

Value that indicates the ciphersuite for which to get the key exchange algorithm.

Returns

Value that represents the key exchange algorithm. Possible values are:

Value

Meaning

L_KEYEXCHANGE_RSA_SIGNED_DHE

[0x40] RSA signed Diffie-Hellman ephemereal.

Comments

The key exchange algorithm is the algorithm for securely generating secret keys.

There are several different cipher suites. Some differ only in the key exchange algorithm.
