Initializing Import Appliance Authentication

Use the oci dts physical-appliance initialize-authentication command and required parameters to initialize authentication for an import appliance.

oci dts physical-appliance initialize-authentication --appliance-cert-fingerprint appliance_cert_fingerprint 
--appliance-ip appliance_ip [OPTIONS]

For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

For example:

oci dts physical-appliance initialize-authentication --job-id ocid1.datatransferjob.oc1..exampleuniqueID 
--appliance-cert-fingerprint F7:1B:D0:45:DA:04:0C:07:1E:B2:23:82:E1:CA:1A:E9 --appliance-ip 10.0.0.1 --appliance-label XAKWEGKZ5T
