9.4.1 Configuring Listening Protocol Addresses

Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control and Oracle Net Manager can be used to configure protocol support for the listener.

The Oracle Net Listener endpoint address configuration accepts both IPv6 addresses and host names that resolve to IPv6 addresses, as explained in "IPv6 Interface and Address Configurations". This technique can create listening endpoints that service IPv6 clients.

  Configure protocol addresses for the listener from the Net Services Administration page in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.

9.4.1.1 Configuring Listening Protocol Addresses Using Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control

Configure protocol addresses for the listener from the Net Services Administration page in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.

1. Access the Net Services Administration page in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.

2. Click Edit. You may be prompted to log in to the database server.

   The Edit Listener page appears.

3. In the Addresses section, configure protocol support:

   1. Click Add.

      The Add Address page appears.

   2. From the Protocol list, select the protocol on which the listener is configured to listen.

      For TCP/IP, if the computer has more than one IP address and you want the listener to listen on all available IP addresses, then select TCP/IP or TCP/IP with TLS and enter the host name of the computer in the Host field.

   3. In Port, enter the port number.

      When configuring the listener to listen on TCP/IP, enter the default port of 1521. Otherwise, you must configure the LOCAL_LISTENER parameter in the initialization parameter file and the non-default port number must be specified for use by any naming method.

   4. In Host, enter the host address.

   5. (Optional) In the Advanced Parameters section, specify the I/O buffer space limit for send and receive operations of sessions in the Total Send Buffer Size and Total Receive Buffer Size fields.

   6. Click OK.

      The protocol address is added to the Addresses section.

4. Repeat Step 3 for additional protocols.

9.4.1.2 Configuring Listening Protocol Addresses Using Oracle Net Manager

The following procedure describes how to configure protocol addresses for the listener using Oracle Net Manager:

1. Start Oracle Net Manager.

2. In the navigator pane, expand Local, and then select Listeners.

3. Select the listener.

4. From the list in the right pane, select Listener Locations.

5. Select the protocol from the Protocol list.

6. Enter the host name for the listener in the Host field.

7. Enter the port number in the Port field.

8. If you want to set send and receive buffer sizes, then click Show Advanced, and then enter the sizes in the appropriate fields.

9. Select Save Network Configuration from the File menu to save the changes.
