Class ServerAuthentication

Checks signed requests of other servers on endpoints with FederationEndpoint metadata, and tells endpoints who sent them, see GetOrigin(HttpContext).

Inheritance
object
ServerAuthentication
Inherited Members
Namespace: Uniform.Matrix.Server.Federation
Assembly: Uniform.Matrix.Server.dll
Syntax
public static class ServerAuthentication
Remarks
