4.3.2 Configuring Oracle Label Security

After installation, you must configure Oracle Label Security in a database before you use it.

You can configure Oracle Label Security in two ways: with Oracle Internet Directory integration and without Oracle Internet Directory integration.

Table 4-1 Configuration Options and Requirements for Oracle Label Security

Configuration	Requirements
With Oracle Internet Directory integration	To configure Oracle Label Security with Oracle Internet Directory integration, Oracle Internet Directory must be installed in your environment and the Oracle database must be registered in the directory.
Without Oracle Internet Directory integration	If you configure Oracle Label Security (OLS) without Oracle Internet Directory integration, then you cannot configure it to use Oracle Internet Directory at a later stage. To configure Oracle Label Security with Oracle Internet Directory on your database at a later time, you must remove the OLS option on the database and configure the OLS with Oracle Internet Directory integration option.
