- Only X.509 type certificate authentication is supported.

- The DSC Instance holds the CA certificate, its own certificate, and its own private key.
- The client DSC Instance validates the received certificate using its local copy of the CA certificate. The server DSC Instance then receives the certificate from the client DSC Instance.
- The DSC Platformonly supports PEM format files.
- The DSC Platform does not support automatic generation or automatic downloading of certificate files.
