About the Default Ports

Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI configures listen ports and network channels in a new domain.

The default ports will vary depending on the domain type selected: Production Mode (default) or Secured Production Mode.

Production Mode (default)

Each server has both internal and external ports. Internal ports are not accessible from outside of Oracle Cloud. External ports support HTTP and HTTPS only. They do not support the T3 and T3S protocols, and they do not support HTTP tunneling. Oracle does not recommend enabling the T3 protocol or HTTP tunneling on network channels that are accessible from outside of Oracle Cloud.

If you chose to use a public subnet for the domain's compute instances, then the instances are assigned public IP addresses, and the external server ports are accessible from the Internet. If you used a private subnet, the external server ports are accessible only from the Oracle Cloud network, or from your on-premises data center over a VPN network.

Secured Production Mode

When the Secured Production Mode Enabled option is selected Oracle WebLogic Server for OCI configures TLS (SSL) listen ports, network channels, and administration ports in a new domain.

Each server has both internal and external ports. Internal ports are not accessible from outside of Oracle Cloud. External ports support HTTPS only. They do not support the T3 and T3S protocols, and they do not support HTTP tunneling. Oracle does not recommend enabling the T3 protocol or HTTP tunneling on network channels that are accessible from outside of Oracle Cloud.

If you chose to use a public subnet for the domain's compute instances, then the instances are assigned public IP addresses, and the external server ports are accessible from the Internet. If you used a private subnet, the external server ports are accessible only from the Oracle Cloud network, or from your on-premises data center over a VPN network.
