What does the 32 bit remote attestation context value signify?

Is understanding it necessary if one wants to configure the remote attestation process? (For example, derive Diffie Hellman keys yourself)

Hi, Arya.

The context is used to access the data structures that internally hold the keys used in the remote attestation process and the negotiated shared keys for future secure communication.
This is useful if you are going to perform a remote attestation with multiple parties.

Best regards,
Rodolfo
