Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> What are the ports involved with DB Link
Hi All,
We have an interesting problem. One of our database is trying to talk a
database on another network. The other networks security is very
stringent, so they just opened the port 1521 for us to be able to
connect. We are able to connect to the "Other" database successfully in sqlplus. But when we try to do some operation with dblink, its not working. It says the tns operation timed out. So, my question is, arethere any other ports involved with db link communication. Does db link use other ports than 1521 to do a successful operation like select from a table on the remote database. If anybody knows anything about it, please let me know.
