Gets the key exchange algorithm used by this SslStream.

public:
 virtual property System::Security::Authentication::ExchangeAlgorithmType KeyExchangeAlgorithm { System::Security::Authentication::ExchangeAlgorithmType get(); };

public virtual System.Security.Authentication.ExchangeAlgorithmType KeyExchangeAlgorithm { get; }

member this.KeyExchangeAlgorithm : System.Security.Authentication.ExchangeAlgorithmType

Public Overridable ReadOnly Property KeyExchangeAlgorithm As ExchangeAlgorithmType

Property Value

ExchangeAlgorithmType

An ExchangeAlgorithmType value.

Examples

The following code example displays the cryptography settings for the specified stream.

static void DisplaySecurityLevel( SslStream^ stream )
{
   Console::WriteLine( L"Cipher: {0} strength {1}", stream->CipherAlgorithm, stream->CipherStrength );
   Console::WriteLine( L"Hash: {0} strength {1}", stream->HashAlgorithm, stream->HashStrength );
   Console::WriteLine( L"Key exchange: {0} strength {1}", stream->KeyExchangeAlgorithm, stream->KeyExchangeStrength );
   Console::WriteLine( L"Protocol: {0}", stream->SslProtocol );
}

static void DisplaySecurityLevel(SslStream stream)
{
   Console.WriteLine("Cipher: {0} strength {1}", stream.CipherAlgorithm, stream.CipherStrength);
   Console.WriteLine("Hash: {0} strength {1}", stream.HashAlgorithm, stream.HashStrength);
   Console.WriteLine("Key exchange: {0} strength {1}", stream.KeyExchangeAlgorithm, stream.KeyExchangeStrength);
   Console.WriteLine("Protocol: {0}", stream.SslProtocol);
}

Private Shared Sub DisplaySecurityLevel(stream As SslStream)
    Console.WriteLine("Cipher: {0} strength {1}", stream.CipherAlgorithm, stream.CipherStrength)
    Console.WriteLine("Hash: {0} strength {1}", stream.HashAlgorithm, stream.HashStrength)
    Console.WriteLine("Key exchange: {0} strength {1}", stream.KeyExchangeAlgorithm, stream.KeyExchangeStrength)
    Console.WriteLine("Protocol: {0}", stream.SslProtocol)
End Sub

Remarks

The value of this property is None until the authentication occurs.

The key exchange algorithm protects information used to generate shared keys.
