Listen is present, the Port value becomes the default port value that is used
when Oracle HTTP Server builds URLs, or other references to itself. Usually, the
values of Port and Listen should match, unless Oracle HTTP Server is fronted by
a caching, or proxy server. Then, you can set Port to be the port that is being used
by the front end server, and Listen to the port that Oracle HTTP Server is actually
listening to. By doing this, redirects or other URLs generated by Oracle HTTP
Server point to the front-end server rather than directly to Oracle HTTP Server.

Listen

Specifies an IP port that Oracle HTTP Server should listen on. Multiple Listen
directives can be used to listen on multiple ports. If present, this value will override
the value of Port. Accordingly, if you have a Port value of 7777 and a Listen
value of 7778, then Oracle HTTP Server only listens on one port, 7778.
