## Class MTCCertificationAuthority

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object
  - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.MTCCertificationAuthority

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ASN1Encodable, Encodable

      public class MTCCertificationAuthority
      extends ASN1Object

  ASN.1 structure for the `id-pe-mtcCertificationAuthority` extension defined in Section 5.5 of draft-ietf-plants-merkle-tree-certs:

       MTCCertificationAuthority ::= SEQUENCE {
           logHash   AlgorithmIdentifier{DIGEST-ALGORITHM, {...}},
           sigAlg    AlgorithmIdentifier{SIGNATURE-ALGORITHM, {...}},
           minSerial INTEGER (0..mtcMaxSerial),
           maxSerial INTEGER (0..mtcMaxSerial)
       }

  `logHash` is the hash algorithm used by all issuance logs operated by this CA. `sigAlg` is the CA cosigner's signature algorithm. `minSerial` and `maxSerial` are the inclusive bounds of the cert serial range this CA is authorized for; per Section 6.1 of the draft a serial encodes the log number in its upper 16 bits and the entry index in the lower 48 bits (a 64-bit value), so the range can constrain either.

    - #### MAX_SERIAL

          public static final java.math.BigInteger MAX_SERIAL

      `mtcMaxSerial` - the largest legal serial, 2^64 - 1 (a serial is the 64-bit composition of a 16-bit log number and a 48-bit entry index).
