SessionKey Type (selection)

A session key is used to uniquely identify a session for scripting environments where a session can be "released" and then reconnected-to at a later time.

 

 

Value

Meaning

Unique Identifier String

(Default)

 

Use the value "Unique Identifier String" to enable two-part sessions which contain a session ID (like the simple integer) connected with a unique string.  This is recommended for any situation where the session key will be included in web pages or other transmitted medium, to reduce the ability for a script to "spoof" authenticated access to a session.

Simple Integer

Use the value "Simple Integer" for the simplest session key, which is a non-qualified single integer.  There are potential programming environments where this can simplify integration but it is generally so insecure it should be restricted to environments with no access to the server on any of the Flynet Server ports.
