The identity of a party to clone authentication and privacy parameters from. When read, the value { 0 0 } is returned.

This value must be written exactly once, when the associated instance of partyStatus either does not exist or has the value `notReady'. When written, the value identifies a party, the cloning party, whose status column has the value `active'. The cloning party is used in two ways.

One, if instances of the following objects do not exist for the party being created, then they are created with values identical to those of the corresponding objects for the cloning party:

partyAuthProtocol partyAuthPublic partyAuthLifetime partyPrivProtocol partyPrivPublic

Two, instances of the following objects are updated using the corresponding values of the cloning party:

partyAuthPrivate partyPrivPrivate

(e.g., the value of the cloning party's instance of the partyAuthPrivate object is XOR'd with the value of the partyAuthPrivate instances of the party being created.)
