Listener Configuration Overview
Configuration During Installation
During a an Enterprise Edition or Standard Edition installation on the database server, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant configures a listener called LISTENER that has a TCP/IP listening protocol address for the Oracle database. During a Custom installation, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant prompts you to configure a listener name and a protocol address of your choice.
Additionally, a listening IPC protocol address for external procedure calls is automatically configured, regardless of the installation type.
Oracle Net Configuration Assistant also automatically configures service information for the external procedures in the listener.ora file.

Oracle Net Manager enables you to:
-

-
