Encryption

The Encryption attribute specifies whether encryption is accepted, rejected, requested, or required for a client/server connection.

You must set this attribute for both the client and the server. Cipher settings must be the same on both the client and server, in most cases.

See Configuration for TLS for Client/Server in Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database Security Guide for more details.

Required Privilege

No privilege is required to change the value of this attribute.

Usage in TimesTen Scaleout and TimesTen Classic

This attribute is supported in TimesTen Classic but not supported in TimesTen Scaleout.

Setting

Set Encryption as follows.

Where to set the attribute	How the attribute is represented	Setting
C or Java programs or UNIX and Linux systems `odbc.ini` file in TimesTen Classic	`Encryption`	`accepted`: Enable an encrypted session if required or requested by the client; use an unencrypted session otherwise. (default) `rejected`: Demand an unencrypted session. (If the server does not support encryption, TimesTen behaves as if this is the setting on the server.) The connection is rejected if the client requires encryption. `requested`: Request an encrypted session if the client allows it (if the client has any setting other than `rejected`); use an unencrypted session otherwise. `required`: Demand an encrypted session. Reject the connection if the client rejects encryption.
