Method Detail

getSecurityName

OctetString getSecurityName(C[] peerCertificateChain)

Gets the tmSecurityName (see RFC 5953) from the certificate chain of the communication peer that needs to be authenticated.

Parameters:

peerCertificateChain - an array of Certificates with the peer's own certificate first followed by any CA authorities.

Returns:

the tmSecurityName as defined by RFC 5953.

isClientCertificateAccepted

boolean isClientCertificateAccepted(C peerEndCertificate)
                             throws CertificateException

Check if the supplied peer end certificate is accepted as client.

Parameters:

peerEndCertificate - a client Certificate instance to check acceptance for.

Returns:

true if the certificate is accepted, false otherwise, i.e. if verification could not performed, i.e. because it was not configured sufficiently.

Throws:

CertificateException - if the certificate is rejected.

isServerCertificateAccepted

boolean isServerCertificateAccepted(C[] peerCertificateChain)
                             throws CertificateException

Check if the supplied peer certificate chain is accepted as server.

Parameters:

peerCertificateChain - a server Certificate chain to check acceptance for.

Returns:

true if the certificate is accepted, false otherwise, i.e. if verification could not performed, i.e. because it was not configured sufficiently.

Throws:

CertificateException - if the certificate is rejected.

isAcceptedIssuer

boolean isAcceptedIssuer(C issuerCertificate)
                  throws CertificateException

Check if the supplied issuer certificate is accepted as server.

Parameters:

issuerCertificate - an issuer Certificate instance to check acceptance for.

Returns:

true if the certificate is accepted, false otherwise, i.e. if verification could not performed, i.e. because it was not configured sufficiently.

Throws:

CertificateException - if the certificate is rejected.

getLocalCertificateAlias

String getLocalCertificateAlias(Address targetAddress)

Gets the local certificate alias to be used for the supplied target address.

Parameters:

targetAddress - a target address or null if the default local certificate alias needs to be retrieved.

Returns:

the requested local certificate alias, if known. Otherwise null is returned which could cause a protocol violation if the local key store contains more than one certificate.
