RE: Router filtering

i went through this same issue recently. Unfortunatley my only option was to open up all ports to the specific db server to specific IP's. I don't

like doing it, but I had to.  If you look on Metaslop there is some
information on this problem.  There are fixes for some routers, check and
see if yours is one of them.

Anyone have any recommendations on getting sqlplus connections to a database running
MTS which has a router in between that is filtering except on port 1521? I can open
up additional ports but opening a whole slew of them for MTS's random port allocation
has put the network guys in shock.

We have set SERVER=DEDICATED in tnsnames to get connections thru for now and I'm looking
at CMAN for a permanent fix, but does anyone else think they have a better way?

Thanks, Dave Turner
