Required access

  • An account on the CryptoHub with administrator privileges to deploy new services.
  • Local administrator access on the computer where Oracle Database is installed.

Network and firewall

  • Allow outbound TCP port2001 (default Host API port) from the computer running Oracle Database to the CryptoHub, specified by FQDN (for example, cryptohub.example.com) or CIDR (for example, 10.0.0.0/24).
TLS inspection or SSL proxies can break mutual TLS handshakes. Exempt the CryptoHub FQDN(s) from inspection. Configure the CryptoHub with a FQDN so the exemption applies.
