Remarks

The .NET Data Provider currently supports the following session authentication mechanisms - TD2 (Teradata method 2), SPNEGO, LDAP, and TDNEGO. For a full description of these mechanisms, please reference the Teradata Security Administration chapter on Generic Security Services Library (TDGSS) - Managing Network Security. The default mechanism will be supplied from a client TeraGSS configuration file if defined and secondarily from a server TDGSS configuration file. The default installation of the TDGSS server configuration file sets the value to TD2. The client default TeraGSS configuration file does not set a default value.

Default Value: Please see the Teradata Security Administration User Manual discussion on the Generic Security Services Library (TDGSS) - Managing Network Security
