Introducing Oracle7 Server for Windows NT

SQL*Net is the Oracle network interface that enables front–end
application software on client workstations to:

•

access data,

•

modify data,

•

share data, and

•

store data

on Oracle7 database servers.

SQL*Net uses communication protocols and application programming
interfaces (APIs) supported by a wide range of networks providing
distributed database capabilities for the Oracle7 RDBMS.

SQL*Net Version 2

This release of Oracle7 Server for Windows NT includes SQL*Net
Version 2 only.

The specific networking components you install with your Oracle7
Server for Windows NT depend upon the version(s) of SQL*Net you are
using on your network.

network environments. For complex network environments, or for more
detailed control of your network, use Network Manager to configure
your network.

SQL*Net V2 and the other TNS–based networking products
(MultiProtocol Interchange and Oracle Names) require a number of

User’s Guide, and Oracle Network Manager Administrator’s Guide.

SQL*Net V2 supports the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange, providing a
bridge between transport protocols. The MultiProtocol Interchange is
not currently supported under Windows NT.

If your network includes machines running another operating system(s),
the MultiProtocol Interchange could run on these machines. In such a
