SQL*Net
Oracle uses one port for its sql*net software. By default, this port is either
1526/tcp or port 1521/tcp, but it is user-configurable by editing the
tnsnames.ora file. To allow sql*net through the Firebox, set up a service
icon for the port that your sql*net server is using, with a protocol of tcp,
Reference Guide
- One UDP icon for port 138. Set client port to "port" to enable the
NetBIOS datagram service to transfer information between
hosts.
- One TCP icon for port 139. Set client port to "client." This sets up
a NetBIOS TCP channel for passing information between hosts.
