Range

Default value

REG_DWORD

0x0–0xFFFFFFFF ( keys )

0x35 ( 53 )

Description

Determines the maximum number of outgoing symmetric encryption keys that can be stored in the cryptographic key cache on the sending server.

If the cache is full (that is, the number of outgoing keys is equal to the value of the CryptReceiveKeyCacheSize entry) when the next key arrives, Message Queuing deletes half of the keys in the cache. The oldest keys are deleted first.

Note Image Note

Incoming keys in the cryptographic key cache are not subject to expiration. Incoming keys are deleted from the cache only when the cache is full.

Windows 2000 does not add this entry to the registry. You can add it by editing the registry or by using a program that edits the registry.
