SSLKeyResetCount (MQLONG)

This specifies when SSL channel message channel agents (MCAs) that initiate communication reset the secret key used for encryption on the channel. The value represents the total number of unencrypted bytes that are sent and received on the channel before the secret key is renegotiated. The number of bytes includes control information sent by the MCA.

The value is a number between 0 and 999 999 999, with a default value of 0.

The secret key is renegotiated when the total number of unencrypted bytes sent and received by the initiating channel MCA exceeds the specified value, or if channel heartbeats are enabled before data is sent or received following a channel heartbeat, whichever occurs first.

The count of bytes sent and received for renegotiation includes control information sent and received by thechannel MCA and is reset whenever a renegotiation occurs.

Use a value of 0 to indicate that secret keys are never renegotiated.

To determine the value of this attribute, use the MQIA_SSL_RESET_COUNT selector with the MQINQ call.
