Configure Default Domains for Clients

In environments where the client often requests names from a specific domain, it is appropriate to set a default domain. When a default domain is set in the profile, it is automatically appended to any unqualified net service name or service name. For example, if the default domain is set to us.acme.com, sales in the following connect string gets searched as sales.us.acme.com:

    CONNECT scott/tiger@sales

| Note: During installation, Net8 Configuration Assistant sets the default domain to your client's domain.

To specify a different domain:

1. In the navigator pane, expand Net8 Configuration > Local > Profile.

2. From the list in the right pane, select Naming.

3. Select the Oracle Names tab.

4. Enter the domain in the Default Domain field.

5. Choose File > Save Network Configuration.
