Hi,

OPC UA supports two different certificate types.
The Application Instance Certificate used to exchange the public key to encrypt the OpenSecureChannel-message
and the SoftwareCertificate which is exchanged during the Session.

What is the SoftwareCertificate used for?
There exist also the signed version of this certificate in the spezification.

Thank you very much,
Mel

The purpose of the Software Certificates is to provide information about the (certified) profiles which the application supports. But they are not used in practice, yet.
