The PROXY mechanism supports user logons through Unity, acting as a proxy for the authentication mechanism in effect at logon and passing user credential information to connected Teradata Vantage systems.
PROXY appears in the TdgssLibraryConfigFile.xml for all installations of Vantage, however, to make a configuration change to PROXY, you must manually copy the mechanism from the TdgssLibraryConfigFile.xml and add it to the TDGSS configuration file.
By default, the MechanismEnabled property is set to yes in the TDGSS version of the TdgssLibraryConfigFile.xml.
