set_phase2_private_key

Description:

public bool set_phase2_private_key (string value, string password, Setting8021xCKScheme scheme, Setting8021xCKFormat out_format) throws Error

Private keys are used to authenticate the connecting client to the network when EAP-TLS is used as either the "phase 1" or "phase 2" 802.1x authentication method.

This function reads a private key from disk and sets the phase2_private_key property with the private key file data if using the nm_setting_802_1x_ck_scheme_blob scheme, or with the path to the private key file if using the nm_setting_802_1x_ck_scheme_path scheme.

If password is given, this function attempts to decrypt the private key to verify that password is correct, and if it is, updates the phase2_private_key_password property with the given password. If the decryption is unsuccessful, false is returned, throws is set, and no internal data is changed. If no password is given, the private key is assumed to be valid, no decryption is performed, and the password may be set at a later time.

WARNING: the "phase2" private key property is not a "secret" property, and thus unencrypted private key data using the BLOB scheme may be readable by unprivileged users. Private keys should always be encrypted with a private key password to prevent unauthorized access to unencrypted private key data.

Parameters:

this	the Setting8021x
value	when `scheme` is set to either nm_setting_802_1x_ck_scheme_path or nm_setting_802_1x_ck_scheme_blob, pass the path of the "phase2" private key file (PEM, DER, or PKCS# <!-- -->12 format). The path must be UTF-8 encoded; use to_utf8 to convert if needed. Passing null with any `scheme` clears the private key.
password	password used to decrypt the private key, or null if the password is unknown. If the password is given but fails to decrypt the private key, an error is returned.
scheme	desired storage scheme for the private key
out_format	on successful return, the type of the private key added

Returns:

true if the operation succeeded, false if it was unsuccessful
