How To Configure Data Encryption and Integrity

Conﬁguring Network Data Encryption and Integrity for Oracle Servers and Clients 3-11

8. Repeat this procedure to conﬁgure encryption on the other system. The

sqlnet.ora ﬁle on the two systems should contain the following entries:

■ On the server:

SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER = [accepted | rejected | requested | required]

SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_SERVER = (valid_encryption_algorithm [,valid_

encryption_algorithm])

■ On the client:

SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_CLIENT = [accepted | rejected | requested | required]

SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_TYPES_CLIENT = (valid_encryption_algorithm [,valid_

encryption_algorithm])

Valid encryption algorithms and their associated legal values are summarized by

Table 3–2:

Configuring Integrity on the Client and the Server

Use Oracle Net Manager to conﬁgure data integrity on the client and on the server
