The authentication method to be used by the driver for connections to the database.
Valid Values
TD1 | TD2 | ldap | KRB5 | KRB5C | NTLM | NTLMC
Behavior
If set to TD1, the driver uses Teradata 1.
If set to TD2, the driver uses Teradata 2.
If set to ldap, the driver uses LDAP.
If set to KRB5, the driver uses Kerberos on Windows clients working with Windows servers if the server is V2R6.0.
If set to KRB5C, the driver uses Kerberos Compatibility on Windows clients working with Windows servers if the server is pre-V2R6.0.
If set to NTLM, the driver uses NTLM on Windows clients working with Windows servers if the server is V2R6.0.
If set to NTLMC, the driver uses NTLM Compatibility on Windows clients working with Windows servers if the server is pre-V2R6.0.
Note: Kerberos and NTLM are enabled through the Teradata client. See your Teradata documentation for requirements.
