<p>Virtual Smart Card emulates a smart card and makes it accessible through PC/SC.
Currently the Virtual Smart Card supports the following types of smart cards:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Generic ISO-7816 smart card including secure messaging</li>
<li>German electronic identity card (nPA) with complete support for <abbr title="Extended Access Control">EAC</abbr>
(<abbr title="Password Authenticated Connection Establishment">PACE</abbr>, <abbr title="Terminal Authenticatation">TA</abbr>, <abbr title="Chip Authentication">CA</abbr>)</li>
<li>Electronic passport (ePass/MRTD) with support for <abbr title="Basic Access Control">BAC</abbr></li>
<li>Cryptoflex smart card (incomplete)</li>
</ul>
<p>The <abbr title="virtual smart card reader">vpcd</abbr> is a smart card reader driver for <a class="reference external" href="http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/">PCSC-Lite</a> <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id5" id="id6">[4]</a> and the windows smart
card service. It allows smart card applications to access the <abbr title="virtual smart card">vpicc</abbr> through
the PC/SC API. By default <abbr title="virtual smart card reader">vpcd</abbr> opens slots for communication with multiple
<abbr title="virtual smart card">vpicc</abbr>&#8216;s on localhost on port 35963 and port 35964. But the <abbr title="virtual smart card">vpicc</abbr> does not
need to run on the same machine as the <abbr title="virtual smart card reader">vpcd</abbr>, they can connect over the
internet for example.</p>
<p>Although the Virtual Smart Card is a software emulator, you can use
<a class="reference internal" href="../pcsc-relay/README.html#pcsc-relay"><span>PC/SC Relay</span></a> to make it accessible to an external contact-less smart card
reader.</p>

<p class="caption">Virtual Smart Card used with its own PC/SC implementation</p></div><p>On Android, where a traditional PC/SC framework is not available, you can use
our framework to make your real contact-less smart accessible through PKCS#11.
For example, an email signing application can use the PKCS#11 interface of
OpenSC, which is linked against our PC/SC implementation. Then an Android App
(e.g. <a class="reference internal" href="../remote-reader/README.html#remote-reader"><span>Remote Smart Card Reader</span></a>) can connect as <abbr title="virtual smart card">vpicc</abbr> delegating all requests and
responses via NFC to a contact-less smart card that signs the mail.</p>

<p>The Virtual Smart Card uses the GNU Build System to compile and install. If you are
unfamiliar with it, please have a look at <code class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">INSTALL</span></code>. If you can not find
it, you are probably working bleeding edge in the repository. Run the
following command in <code class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">virtualsmartcard</span></code> to get the missing standard
auxiliary files:</p>
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre>autoreconf --verbose --install
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>To configure (<strong class="command">configure --help</strong> lists possible options), build and
install the Virtual Smart Card now do the following:</p>
<div class="highlight-sh"><div class="highlight"><pre>./configure --sysconfdir<span class="o">=</span>/etc

<p>Mac OS X 10.9 and earlier is using PCSC-Lite as smart card service which allows
using the standard routine for <a class="reference internal" href="#vicc-install"><span>installation on Unix</span></a>.</p>
<p>Mac OS X 10.10 (and later) ships with a proprietary implementation of the PC/SC
layer instead of with PCSC-Lite. As far as we know, this means that smart card
readers must be USB devices instead of directly allowing a more generic type of
reader. To make <abbr title="virtual smart card reader">vpcd</abbr> work we simply configure it to pretend being a USB smart

<p>The configuration file of <abbr title="virtual smart card reader">vpcd</abbr> is usually placed into
<code class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">/etc/reader.conf.d/</span></code>. For older versions of PCSC-Lite you
need to run <strong class="command">update-reader.conf</strong> to update <strong class="command">pcscd</strong>&#8216;s main

Virtual Smart Card 0.8: Smart card emulator written in Python. The emulator
connects to the virtual smart card reader reader (vpcd). Smart card
applications can access the Virtual Smart Card through the vpcd via PC/SC.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-t {iso7816,cryptoflex,ePass,nPA,relay,handler_test}, --type {iso7816,cryptoflex,ePass,nPA,relay,handler_test}
type of smart card to emulate (default: iso7816)
-v, --verbose Use (several times) to be more verbose
-f FILE, --file FILE load a saved smart card image
-H HOSTNAME, --hostname HOSTNAME
specifiy vpcd&#39;s host name if vicc shall connect to it.
(default: localhost)
-P PORT, --port PORT port of connection establishment (default: 35963)
-R, --reversed use reversed connection mode. vicc will wait for an
incoming connection from vpcd. (default: False)
--version show program&#39;s version number and exit
Relaying a local smart card (`--type=relay`):
--reader READER number of the reader containing the card to be relayed
(default: 0)
Emulation of German identity card (`--type=nPA`):
--ef-cardaccess EF_CARDACCESS
the card&#39;s EF.CardAccess (default: use file from first
generation nPA)
--ef-cardsecurity EF_CARDSECURITY
the card&#39;s EF.CardSecurity (default: use file from
first generation nPA)
--cvca CVCA trust anchor for verifying certificates in TA
(default: use libeac&#39;s trusted certificates)
--disable-ta-checks disable checking the validity period of CV certifcates
(default: False)
--ca-key CA_KEY the chip&#39;s private key for CA (default: randomly
generated, invalidates signature of EF.CardSecurity)
-d DATASETFILE, --datasetfile DATASETFILE
Load the smartcard&#39;s data groups (DGs) from the
specified dataset file. For DGs not in dataset file
default values are used. The data groups in the data
set file must have the following syntax:
---------------------------------------------------
Datagroupname=Datagroupvalue
---------------------------------------------------
For Example: GivenNames=GERTRUD. The following Dataset
Elements may be used in the dataset file:
DocumentType, IssuingState, DateOfExpiry, GivenNames,
FamilyNames, ReligiousArtisticName, AcademicTitle,
DateOfBirth, PlaceOfBirth, Nationality, Sex,
BirthName, Country, City, ZIP, Street, CommunityID,
ResidencePermit1, ResidencePermit2, dg12, dg14, dg15,
dg16, dg21.
--esign-cert ESIGN_CERT
