Background

In Exasol 7.1.0, TLS was made the default encryption protocol for all drivers. More details are in EXASOL-2936. One method of verification is to add the fingerprint to the hostname in the connection string. (ie exadb1.example.com/72975b4d331deeb44fa41fb858a5417e163151bbfb45376574706800a8dcce30:8563 )

New Feature

The fingerprint can be included in the connection string using the driver parameter "fingerprint". This argument is implemented on JDBC, ODBC, and ADONET.

  • JDBC: fingerprint=<Valid Fingerprint>
  • ODBC: Fingerprint=<Valid Fingerprint>
  • ADO.NET: Fingerprint=<Valid Fingerprint>

JDBC Example:

jdbc:exa:exadb1.example.com:8563;fingerprint=<Fingerprint>;
