Then select the server from the Tools menu.
Select SQL Server Configuration Properties, and choose the Security page.
@Siva Kumar what is the difference between two modes Can you please explain that as well?
@Gouthami
Here is the difference between Windows Authentication Mode and Mixed Authentication Mode.
1) Windows Authentication Mode:
Windows authentication mode requires users to provide a valid Windows username and password to access the database server.
2)Mixed Authonctiation Mode:
Mixed authentication mode allows the use of Windows credentials but supplements them with local SQL Server user accounts that the administrator may create and maintain within SQL Server.
I hope it helps.
