Event Data
The event handler receives an argument of type HostKeyReceivedEventArgs containing data related to this event. The following HostKeyReceivedEventArgs properties provide information specific to this event.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| AcceptHostKey | Gets or sets a System.Boolean value that indicates whether the server's public key should be accepted or rejected by the client. Default is true. |
| HostKey | Gets a System.Byte array that represents the server's raw public key. |
| HostKeyLength | Gets a System.Int32 that represents the length, in bits, of the public key that the raw host key data represents. |
| HostKeyMD5Fingerprint | Gets a System.Byte array that represents the server's public key, computed into a MD5 hash value. |
| HostKeyMD5FingerprintString | Gets a System.String that represents the server's public key, computed into a MD5 hash value. |
| HostKeySHA256Fingerprint | |
| HostKeySHA256FingerprintString | |
| HostKeyType | Gets a System.String that represents the algorithm used to compute the server's public key. |
| PublicKeyAlgorithm | Gets a ISSHPublicKeyAlgorithm object that represents the algorithm used to compute the server's public key. |
Remarks
The event arguments contain the server's public key. The key is available as an MD5 fingerprint or as the raw byte array. An application that subscribes to the event can accept or reject the key with the AcceptHostKey property.
