rpc_server_authentication_method

rpc_server_authentication_method specifies the security authentication method of the RPC server. You only need to log on to the sys tenant and set the authentication method for the client and server by running corresponding commands.

Example

ALTER SYSTEM SET rpc_server_authentication_method = 'ALL';
ALTER SYSTEM SET rpc_server_authentication_method = 'NONE';

Considerations

1. You need to specify the rpc_client_authentication_method parameter for the client. For more information, see rpc_client_authentication_method.

2. The server supports multiple authentication methods. If you set multiple authentication methods at a time, separate the authentication methods with commas (,). The parameter value is case-insensitive.

   ALTER SYSTEM SET rpc_server_authentication_method = 'NONE, SSL_NO_ENCRYPT';
   

3. If the parameter is set to a correct value, the latest specified value is used. Otherwise, the original authentication method is used. For example, if you change the value from NONE to SSL_NO_ENCRYPT, ANY by running the alter system set rpc_server_authentication_method command, the original value NONE is still used. This is because ANY is not a valid value.

4. The following table describes the types of clients that are allowed based on the value of the rpc_server_authentication_method parameter:

   Value of rpc_server_authentication_method	Types of clients allowed
   NONE	Old clients that have not been upgraded or authenticated New clients whose authentication method is NONE
   SSL_NO_ENCRYPT	New clients whose authentication method is SSL_NO_ENCRYPT
   ALL	The union of the preceding types
