Key set name
Specifies the key set name that is used to select the key set from a key set group and from runtime application programming interfaces (API).
Key store
Specifies the keystore that contains the keys for storage, retrieval, or both.
Key alias prefix name
Specifies the prefix for the key alias when a new key is generated and stored in a keystore. The rest of the key alias comes from the key reference version number.
For example, if the alias prefix is mykey
and the
key reference version is 2, the keystore references the key using
alias mykey_2
. If the key reference already has a
specified alias for a key already existing in the keystore, this field
is ignored.
