| Type | WinRT Enumeration (a 32-bit unsigned or signed integer) |
| IDL | MidiNetworkAuthenticationTypeEnum.idl |
Set on MidiNetworkHostCreationConfig.AuthenticationType.
| Value | Numeric Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
NoAuthentication |
0 |
No authentication. Any client that gets past the host’s approval policy can connect |
PasswordAuthentication |
1 |
A shared secret is required. Not built yet |
UserAuthentication |
2 |
A user name and password are required. Not built yet |
Only NoAuthentication is accepted right now. A host set up for either of the others is rejected when it’s configured, with AuthenticationNotImplemented. That’s better than starting and quietly accepting connections that aren’t authenticated. See issue 733.
