Security for connections from Adaptive Server

The UAF manages security for Adaptive Server connections by configuring the Adaptive Server SNMP Agent Plug-in for the data server.

The UAF must authenticate the Adaptive Server connection and ensure that the authenticated user is authorized to perform subsequent Adaptive Server SNMP operations. By configuring the UAF to use the Adaptive Server user name and password as one of its authentication and authorization modules, Adaptive Server can pass its own user name and password to the UAF.

To set the user name and password for connections to remote servers in Adaptive Server, use sp_addexterlogin. For more information see “Examples for configuring the Adaptive Server client”.
