"AcquireGenericServiceTicketRequestType Object"specification for the service request which will be invoked with the ticket.
a ticket that may be used to invoke the specified request. The first choice for authenticating the host is sslCertificate. If sslCertificate is unset, the following logic is used to authenticate the host: 1. If the VC system supports the crypto hash algorithm of the sslThumbprint or certThumbprintList (if set), they will be verified against that of the server certificate. If they doesn't match, the CA certificates will be used to authenticate the host. 2. If the VC system does not support the crypto hash algorithm of sslThumbprint or certThumbprintList, only the CA certificates will be used to authenticate the host.
