Create a Listener
A listener must exist on the server in order for the database to receive connections. You can create a listener with one or more listening protocol addresses. Clients using connect descriptors configured with one of these protocol addresses can send a database connection request to the listener.
To create a listener:
By default the listener name is LISTENER for the first listener. Subsequent listener names are defaulted to LISTENERn. The listener name must be unique any given node.
If configuring the listener to listen on TCP/IP, you should choose the default port of 1521 to use dynamic service registration. If you do not, you must configure the LOCAL_LISTENER parameter in the initialization file and resolve the listener name through a naming method.
