Configuring Password Authentication for the Listener
The listener can be configured with security. This way, privileged operations, such as saving configuration changes or stopping the listener, used from the Listener Control utility will require a password. Oracle Net Manager enables you to set an encrypted password.
To set a password for the listener:
-
In the navigator pane, expand Oracle Net Configuration > Local > Listeners.
-
Select a listener.
-
From the list in the right pane, select General Parameters.
-
Select the Authentication tab.
-
Choose Require a Password for Listener Operations.
-
Enter the password in the Password field, and re-enter it in the Confirm Password field.
- Choose File > Save Network Configuration.
