Toolbar

The toolbar, located on the left side of Net8 Assistant, contains icons that correspond to the network objects in the folder hierarchies. The toolbar buttons are enabled depending on the objects viewed or selected in a pane. Move the mouse cursor over a toolbar icon to display the description of the icon's function.

The toolbar contains the following icons:

| Choose to create new net service names, listeners, and an Oracle Names server for this computer.
| Choose to delete service naming and listener objects.
| Choose to verify connectivity of a selected service naming object to a database service. During a connectivity test, a connection to a database service is made by using connect descriptor information stored in a tnsnames.ora file or a directory server. Verification of network information stored in an Oracle Names server is done differently, as described in Query Network Objects.
| Choose to displays online help.

| Note: Some of the commands are only available when you select the appropriate type of object. For example, if you want to create a listener, you must first select the Listeners folder.
