SecurityBindingElement::CreateMutualCertificateBindingElement Method (MessageSecurityVersion^)

.NET Framework (current version)

Creates an asymmetric security binding element that is configured to require certificate-based client authentication as well as certificate-based server authentication.

Namespace: System.ServiceModel.Channels
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

Syntax

C++

public:
static SecurityBindingElement^ CreateMutualCertificateBindingElement(
	MessageSecurityVersion^ version
)

Parameters

version: Type: System.ServiceModel::MessageSecurityVersion^
The message security version.

Return Value

Type: System.ServiceModel.Channels::SecurityBindingElement^

A SecurityBindingElement object.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentNullException	version is null.

Remarks

If the version is WSSecurity10, then the binding element is configured so that the client request is signed by its certificate and encrypted with the server certificate.

If the version is WSSecurity11, then the binding element is configured so that a new random symmetric key (encrypted for the server) is generated for every request by the client and is used to protect the request as well as the response from the server. The client's certificate is used as an endorsing supporting token on the request.

Note
Once a SecurityBindingElement object is created by calling this method, the MessageSecurityVersion property is immutable. Calling set on it does not change it.
