Administrator or Runtime Install Mode with TCP/IP
Welcome to Oracle Net Configuration Assistant in the Administrator or
Runtime installation modes.
The easy connect naming method can eliminate the need for service name
lookup in the tnsnames.ora
files for TCP/IP environments. Easy connect naming provides out-of-the-box
TCP/IP connectivity to databases. The easy connect naming method extends
the functionality of the host naming method
by enabling clients to connect to a database server with an optional port
and service name in addition to the host name of the database:
For example,
the following connect identifiers connect the client to database service
sales.us.acme.com with a listening endpoint of 1521 on database
server sales-server.
Note:
Oracle Net Configuration Assistant provides basic configuration. For more
advanced configuration operations, or to configure other portions of Oracle
Net that this tool does not cover, use the Oracle
Net Manager.
