NetCA

NetCA (Network Configuration Assistant) is a utility used for configuring SQL*Net.

NetCA can be considered a simplistic version of Net Manager. However, NetCA is used as a configuration assistant launched by the OUI at install time. It is more suitable for batch mode for silent installations.
