Parameters for Clients and Servers using RADIUS Authentication
B-6 Oracle Database Advanced Security Administrator's Guide
SQLNET.RADIUS_AUTHENTICATION_INTERFACE
This parameter sets the name of the Java class that contains the graphical user
interface when RADIUS is in the challenge-response (asynchronous) mode.
Table B–15 describes this parameter's attributes.
SQLNET.RADIUS_CLASSPATH
If you decide to use the challenge-response authentication mode, RADIUS presents
the user with a Java-based graphical interface requesting first a password, then
additional information—for example, a dynamic password that the user obtains
from a token card. Add the SQLNET.RADIUS_CLASSPATH parameter in the
sqlnet.ora file to set the path for the Java classes for that graphical interface, and
to set the path to the JDK Java libraries. Table B–16 describes this parameter's
attributes.
