Gets a value that identifies the bulk encryption algorithm used by this SslStream.

public:
 virtual property System::Security::Authentication::CipherAlgorithmType CipherAlgorithm { System::Security::Authentication::CipherAlgorithmType get(); };

public virtual System.Security.Authentication.CipherAlgorithmType CipherAlgorithm { get; }

member this.CipherAlgorithm : System.Security.Authentication.CipherAlgorithmType

Public Overridable ReadOnly Property CipherAlgorithm As CipherAlgorithmType

Property Value

CipherAlgorithmType

A value that identifies the bulk encryption algorithm used by this SslStream.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The CipherAlgorithm property was accessed before the completion of the authentication process or the authentication process failed.

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

A value of Null is required for the CipherAlgorithm property when the NoEncryption enumeration value is used to construct a SslStream instance.

Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP do not support the Null value. So even if the Null value is used to construct the SslStream instance, the EncryptionPolicy property will be None. The Null value is only returned on Windows Vista and later.
