The table below describes the basic elements of the LOGON command, some of which might be optional at some installations. These elements, on their own, are generally sufficient for employing the simpler default authentication mechanism TD2, which most typically relies solely on provision of a LOGON command. For more information on the LOGON command, see LOGON.

Syntax Element Optional or Required Specifies
tdpid/ Optional The Teradata Director Program ID of the Teradata server that the user is logging on to.
userid Required A valid user identifier.
password Required The password for the valid userid.
acctid Optional The account identifier for the valid userid.
