  • Article

The EC_SUBSCRIPTION_CREDENTIALS_TYPE enumeration specifies the type of credentials to use when communicating with event sources.

Syntax

typedef enum _EC_SUBSCRIPTION_CREDENTIALS_TYPE {
  EcSubscriptionCredDefault = 0,
  EcSubscriptionCredNegotiate,
  EcSubscriptionCredDigest,
  EcSubscriptionCredBasic,
  EcSubscriptionCredLocalMachine
} EC_SUBSCRIPTION_CREDENTIALS_TYPE;

Constants

 
EcSubscriptionCredDefault
Value: 0
Negotiate with event sources to specify a proper authentication type without specifying a username and password for the subscription credentials.
EcSubscriptionCredNegotiate
WinRM will negotiate with event sources to specify a proper authentication type for the subscription credentials.
EcSubscriptionCredDigest
Use digest authentication for the subscription credentials.
EcSubscriptionCredBasic
Send a username and password to use as credentials for the subscription.
EcSubscriptionCredLocalMachine
Use the local computer's domain account credentials to create a subscription instead of using user credentials for the subscription. This has the advantage of not having to manage user accounts and password expiration to simplify long lasting subscription management.
