General Parameters: Authentication

The Authentication tab enables you to configure security for a listener. This way, privileged operations, such as saving configuration changes or stopping the listener, issued from LSNRCTL will require a password. The Net8 Assistant enables you to set an unencrypted password.

Do Not Require a Password for Listener Operations

Choose to disable authentication for administrator tasks.

Require a Password for Listener Operations

Choose to enable authentication for certain administrator tasks. You can then enter the required password. The default password is "oracle".

| Note: Net8 allows configuration of one password per listener.
