KeyExchangeAlgorithm

KeyExchangeAlgorithm

Parameters

Parameter	Attribute	DataType	Description	Allowed Values
KeyExchangeAlgorithm	Key	String	Specifies the Key Exchange Algorithm to configure	Diffie-Hellman, ECDH, PKCS
State	Write	String	Specifies the state of the specified Key Exchange Algorithm	Enabled, Disabled, Default
RebootWhenRequired	Write	Boolean	Specifies if a reboot will be performed when required (Default: False)

Description

This resource is responsible for enabling or disabling key exchange algorithms.

Examples

Example 1

This example shows how to enable the ECDH key exchange algorithm.

Configuration Example
{
    param(
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName SChannelDsc

    node localhost {
        KeyExchangeAlgorithm EnableECDH
        {
            KeyExchangeAlgorithm = "ECDH"
            State                = "Enabled"
        }
    }
}

Example 2

This example shows how to disable the ECDH key exchange algorithm.

Configuration Example
{
    param(
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName SChannelDsc

    node localhost {
        KeyExchangeAlgorithm DisableECDH
        {
            KeyExchangeAlgorithm = "ECDH"
            State                = "Disabled"
        }
    }
}

Example 3

This example shows how to reset the ECDH key exchange algorithm to the OS default.

Configuration Example
{
    param(
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName SChannelDsc

    node localhost {
        KeyExchangeAlgorithm DisableECDH
        {
            KeyExchangeAlgorithm = "ECDH"
            State                = "Default"
        }
    }
}
