Ramesh Reddy commented on TEIID-2863:
-------------------------------------

Ok, the SSL is over individual connection rather than whole transport. The follow on question is, if the transport is not configured with any SSL certificates how does SSLEngine work, seems like in the code is reading the SSLConfig from transport settings? or does it use anonymous SSL in that case?

Either way, we would need to devise similar functionality for JDBC too, so that we would not need need multiple sockets. Then, I also propose that we pull the "auth" & "ssl" specific configuration in the transport to Teiid system level with a defined name, then we can just reference it in VDB(s) or Transport(s) as enforcing mechanism. Otherwise all the SSL, auth properties can get little hairy everywhere. And also VDB does not get commited to one way of doing security, but will depend upon environment (DEV/TEST/PROD) configurations, like we do for data sources.

Teiid concept of transport is not living up to our original intentions with what users are really looking for -:(

> With GSSAPI support enabled, username/password support on the same transport is effectively disabled.  JDBC/ODBC should ideally support both on the same transport.
