| Meta-Data Type | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Fcast-Obj-Digest-SHA1 | a string that contains the "base64" encoding of the SHA-1 message digest of the object before any content encoding is applied (if any) and without considering the FCAST Header | RFC 6968 |
| Fcast-Obj-Digest-SHA256 | a string that contains the "base64" encoding of the SHA-256 message digest of the object before any content encoding is applied (if any) and without considering the FCAST Header | RFC 6968 |
| Fcast-Obj-Slice-Nb | Unsigned 32-bit integer that contains the total number of slices. A value greater than 1 indicates that this object is the result of a split of the original object | RFC 6968 |
| Fcast-Obj-Slice-Idx | Unsigned 32-bit integer that contains the slice index (in the {0 .. SliceNb - 1} interval) | RFC 6968 |
| Fcast-Obj-Slice-Offset | Unsigned 64-bit integer that contains the byte offset at which this slice starts within the original object | RFC 6968 |
