Configuration Signature (ID:200)

Associated with: DNP3 master outstations

This attribute comprises the signature that is associated with the configuration that is currently operating in the outstation. The signature is calculated using an appropriate algorithm, such as a CRC algorithm, or MAC algorithm. The signature can be used to verify that the configuration in the outstation matches that which was last loaded into the outstation.

In the outstation's Status display, the signature's octet string is formatted as a hexadecimal string and is prefixed with '0x' to indicate hex. The matching database field, DeviceConfigSignature (in the CDNP3OS database table), comprises an array of bytes.
