InitializeAuthenticateManagementKeyResponse Class

Namespace: Yubico.YubiKey.Piv.Commands Assembly: Yubico.YubiKey.dll

The response to the initialize authenticate management key command.

C#

public sealed class InitializeAuthenticateManagementKeyResponse : PivResponse, IYubiKeyResponseWithData<(bool, ReadOnlyMemory<byte>)>, IYubiKeyResponse

Inheritance System.Object YubiKeyResponse PivResponse InitializeAuthenticateManagementKeyResponse

Implements

IYubiKeyResponseWithData<System.ValueTuple<System.Boolean, System.ReadOnlyMemory<System.Byte>>>

IYubiKeyResponse

Remarks

This is the partner Response class to InitializeAuthenticateManagementKeyCommand.

The data returned is a tuple consisting of a boolean and a ReadOnlyMemory<byte>. The boolean indicates if this is mutual authentication or not, true for mutual auth, false for single. The byte array is "Client Authentication Challenge".

See the comments for the class InitializeAuthenticateManagementKeyCommand, there is a lengthy discussion of the process of authenticating the management key, including descriptions of the challenges and responses.

It is likely that you will never need to call GetData in this class. You will pass an instance of this class to the constructor for CompleteAuthenticateManagementKeyCommand, which will process the challenge.
