The Signature Type is the same const as that in TMD. The certificate chain is located at offset 0x2A4 for tickets from CDN/SOAP, however this cert-chain is removed once the ticket is installed to NAND.

Some facts

• CETK can be fetched through HTTP using the link to default update server, using the title's TMD URL where "cetk" is used instead of "tmd" for the URL. The 3DS NIM module retrieves system tickets via SOAP request GetCommonETicket.
