Export-TlsSessionTicketKey

Export-TlsSessionTicketKey

Exports a TLS session ticket key.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
Export-TlsSessionTicketKey [-Password] <SecureString> [[-Path] <String> ] [-ServiceAccountName] <NTAccount> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Export-TlsSessionTicketKey cmdlet exports the administrator managed Transport Layer Security (TLS) session ticket key for a service account.

TLS creates a session ticket by using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) Session Resumption without Server-Side State mechanism [RFC 5077]. This mechanism helps to improve the performance of TLS. The TLS server uses this mechanism to create a key to encrypt a session ticket. The client can later use the encrypted session ticket to resume communication with the TLS server. Otherwise, the client must restart the communication by acquiring of new session ticket. For more information, see RFC 5077, "Transport Layer Security (TLS) Session Resumption without Server-Side State."

Examples

Example 1: Export a TLS session ticket key

This example exports the key for a TLS session ticket for a service account.

The first command prompts the user to enter a password. The command masks the password that the user types at the prompt. The command stores the password in the $Password variable.

The second command exports the session ticket key for the service account named Networkservice from the configuration file on the TLS server. The command specifies the path for the configuration file on the TLS server, and specifies that the TLS session use the password stored in $Password to access the configuration file.

PS C:\> $Password = read-host -assecurestring
PS C:\> Export-TlsSessionTicketKey -Path "C:\keyconfig\tlssessionticketKey.config" -Password $Password -ServiceAccountName "Networkservice"
