SSL Combined with Other Authentication Methods
You can configure Oracle Advanced Security to use SSL concurrently with database
usernames and passwords, RADIUS, and Kerberos, which are discussed in the
following sections:
■
Architecture: Oracle Advanced Security and SSL

How SSL Works with Other Authentication Methods
Architecture: Oracle Advanced Security and SSL
Figure 1–5
on page 1-15, which displays the Oracle Advanced Security
implementation architecture, shows that Oracle Advanced Security operates at the
session layer
on top of SSL and uses TCP/IP at the
transport layer
. This separation
of functionality lets you employ SSL concurrently with other supported protocols.
How SSL Works with Other Authentication Methods
Figure 7–1
illustrates a configuration in which SSL is used in combination with
another authentication method supported by Oracle Advanced Security. In this
example, SSL is used to establish the initial handshake (server authentication), and
an alternative authentication method is used to authenticate the client.
See Also:
Appendix A, "Data Encryption and Integrity
Parameters"
for information about how to configure SSL with other
supported authentication methods, including an example of a
sqlnet.ora
file with multiple authentication methods specified.
