The purpose of making Oracle network is to have an environment where users from all over the city or country or even world can access the database as if it’s residing on their machine. Establishing an Oracle network is very simple. All you have to do is to configure Oracle Net layer on both server and client side.

 

Figure 47: Oracle Net needs to be configured on server as well as on each client.

Oracle Net gets installed on the server at the time of installation of Oracle Server software but for each client we have to select the option of client installation in Oracle Universal Installer. The way it works is first we create the listener.ora file on the server then we start the listener. The development of listener.ora file is actually the configuration of Oracle Net for the server. Once we have started the listener process, it listens to the users connection requests. The job of the listener process is to bequeath the connection to the dispatcher in case the Oracle server is running under shared server mode or to the dedicated server process in case Oracle is running under dedicated mode.
