Definition

Called by servers to authenticate the server and optionally the client in a client-server connection as an asynchronous operation.

Overloads

AuthenticateAsServerAsync(X509Certificate, Boolean, SslProtocols, Boolean)

Called by servers to authenticate the server and optionally the client in a client-server connection using the specified certificates, requirements and security protocol as an asynchronous operation.

AuthenticateAsServerAsync(X509Certificate, Boolean, Boolean)

Called by servers to authenticate the server and optionally the client in a client-server connection using the specified certificates, requirements and security protocol as an asynchronous operation.

AuthenticateAsServerAsync(SslServerAuthenticationOptions, CancellationToken)

Public Overridable Function AuthenticateAsServerAsync (serverCertificate As X509Certificate, clientCertificateRequired As Boolean, enabledSslProtocols As SslProtocols, checkCertificateRevocation As Boolean) As Task

Parameters

serverCertificate
X509Certificate

The X509Certificate used to authenticate the server.

clientCertificateRequired
Boolean

A Boolean value that specifies whether the client is asked for a certificate for authentication. Note that this is only a request -- if no certificate is provided, the server still accepts the connection request.

enabledSslProtocols
SslProtocols

The SslProtocols value that represents protocols used for authentication.

checkCertificateRevocation
Boolean

A Boolean value that specifies whether the certificate revocation list is checked during authentication.

Returns

The task object representing the asynchronous operation.

Exceptions

serverCertificate is null.

The authentication failed and left this object in an unusable state.

Authentication has already occurred.

-or-

Client authentication using this SslStream was tried previously.

-or-

Authentication is already in progress.

This object has been closed.

Remarks

Starting with .NET Framework 4.7, this method authenticates using None, which allows the operating system to choose the best protocol to use, and to block protocols that are not secure. In .NET Framework 4.6 (and .NET Framework 4.5 with the latest security patches installed), the allowed TLS/SSL protocols versions are 1.2, 1.1, and 1.0 (unless you disable strong cryptography by editing the Windows Registry).

If the authentication fails, you receive a AuthenticationException, and this SslStream is no longer useable. You should close this object and remove all references to it so that it can be collected by the garbage collector.

This method stores in the task it returns all non-usage exceptions that the method's synchronous counterpart can throw. If an exception is stored into the returned task, that exception will be thrown when the task is awaited. Usage exceptions, such as ArgumentException, are still thrown synchronously. For the stored exceptions, see the exceptions thrown by AuthenticateAsServer(X509Certificate, Boolean, SslProtocols, Boolean).
