Task 4: Log On To The Database; Troubleshooting Ssl - Oracle Database B10772-01 Administrator's Manual

Oracle Advanced Security. For example, use this parameter if you want the server
to authenticate itself to the client by using SSL and the client to authenticate itself to
the server by using RADIUS.
To set the client SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES parameter:
Add TCP/IP with SSL (TCPS) to this parameter in the sqlnet.ora file by using a
text editor. For example, if you want to use SSL authentication in conjunction with
RADIUS authentication, set this parameter as follows:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (TCPS, radius)
If you do not want to use SSL authentication in conjunction with another
authentication method, then do not set this parameter.

Task 4: Log on to the Database

If you are using SSL authentication for the client (SSL_CLIENT_
AUTHENTICATION=true in the listener.ora file), then launch SQL*Plus and
enter the following:
CONNECT/@net_service_name
If you are not using SSL authentication (SSL_CLIENT_AUTHENTICATION=false
in the listener.ora file), launch SQL*Plus and enter the following:
CONNECT username/password@net_service_name
