September 21st changes

Hi,

According to:

https://community.developer.authorize.net/t5/The-Authorize-Net-Developer-Blog/Authorize-Net-Begins-I...

"To ensure your solution works with the infrastructure changes, please validate the following:
Your certificate store includes certificates for Root 2 - GeoTrust Global CA
Your security transport—the part that negotiates TLS—supports SHA-256
Your solution does not connect directly to Authorize.Net using an IP address
Your solution’s firewall is not set to whitelist Authorize.Net IP addresses for outbound connections"

----------------------------------------------------

1) re: "Your certificate store includes certificates for Root 2 - GeoTrust Global CA"

Our SSL root is "GlobalSign Root CA". Will our current SSL function properly with your changes, or do we have to get a new one with sha2 as well as GeoTrust Global CA root? Please clarify.

2) re: "Your security transport—the part that negotiates TLS—supports SHA-256"

Is there a new version of the authorize.net dll that we should download and use?

Based on the above, do we need to make any changes to how we process authorize.net transactions in order for them to continue working on September 21st? Any pointers will be very appreciated.

Kind regards,

Kamil

ps. For clarity, we use something like this to process transactions:

 <add key="CCAuthLogin" value="somelogin"/> 
 <add key="CCAuthTransKey" value="somekey"/>

 and 

 AuthLogin = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("CCAuthLogin") 
 AuthTransKey = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("CCAuthTransKey")

 Dim request As New AuthorizationRequest(CCNum, ExpDate, Amount, Description)

 request.Login = AuthLogin
 request.TranKey = AuthTransKey

 request.Method = "CC"
 request.Type = "AUTH_CAPTURE"

 ...

 ...

Dim gate As New Gateway(AuthLogin, AuthTransKey)

gate.TestMode = False
Dim response As GatewayResponse
response = gate.Send(request)
