Direct mode and SQLNET encryption on server

I set parameter "SQLNET.ENCRYPTION_SERVER=required" on database server file sqlnet.ora. I connected successfully in Client mode, but unsuccessfully in Direct mode.
Is SQLNET encryption problem in UniDAC during Direct mode?

Hello,

The Direct mode doesn't support Oracle native encryption. his functionality is implemented at the client level.

Hi all,
I just read that "dotConnect for Oracle is now FIPS compliant on .NET Framework 3.5 in the Direct mode" in the dotConnect for Oracle History https://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle/history.html some where under "New features in dotConnect for Oracle 8.4".
Does that mean that dotConnect 8.4 and newer support the network encryption of Oracle in Direct Mode?
If yes, what Encryption Algorithms can be used? And is Checksuming also possible?
Here you find the Oracle documentation of what I asumed could be supported now in Direct Mode https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/ne ... #ASOAG9581

I hope you can help me, thanks in advance. :)

No, this is not related to encryption you are interested in. It is about user data encryption on connection.
