Teradata.Client.Provider
AuthenticationString Property



Teradata.Client.Provider Namespace > TdConnectionStringBuilder Class : AuthenticationString Property
AuthenticationString supports mechanisms that require additional authentication information.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property AuthenticationString As String
'Usage
 
Dim instance As TdConnectionStringBuilder
Dim value As String
 
instance.AuthenticationString = value
 
value = instance.AuthenticationString
public string AuthenticationString {get; set;}
public:
property String^ AuthenticationString {
   String^ get();
   void set (    String^ value);
}
Remarks

All mechanisms use this information except for the TD2 mechanism. The TD2 mechanism only encrypts the logon information and does not perform authentication. The AuthenticationString will be constructed by the .NET Data Provider for Teradata using the UserId and Password properties if the mechanism supports the automatic generation of credentials. If UserId, Password and AuthenticationString have all been specified, the constructed AuthenticationString will consist of a concatenation of UserId@@Password and the original AuthenticationString. This allows an application to specify a UserId and Password and still supply additional authentication data. For examples of Authentication Strings, please reference the Teradata Security Administration chapter on Teradata Database Generic Security Services Library (TDGSS) - Managing Network Security. If IntegratedSecurity is set true, any value supplied in this field is ignored.

Default Value: empty string

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2
