Which file is NOT a component of the client credentials wallet used to connect to...

The client credentials wallet for connecting to an Oracle Autonomous Database contains specific files required for secure connectivity. These files are downloaded from the OCI Console when you generate a wallet:

Correct Answer (A): protocol.ora is not a standard component of the client credentials wallet. It is typically used in traditional Oracle Database setups to define protocol parameters (e.g., TCP vs. IPC), but in Autonomous Database, such details are managed by Oracle and embedded within other wallet files like ewallet.p12.

Included Files:

B. ewallet.p12: Contains the encrypted private key and certificates for authentication.

C. sqlnet.ora: Specifies network configuration details (e.g., wallet location, encryption settings).

D. keystore.jks: A Java KeyStore file for Java-based applications to authenticate with the database.
