Parameter
NOTE:
The iSNS protocol facilitates the automated discovery, management, and
configuration of iSCSI and Fibre Channel devices on a TCP/IP network. The iSNS
protocol provides intelligent storage discovery and management services
comparable to those found in Fibre Channel networks, allowing a commodity IP
network to function in a similar capacity as a storage area network. The iSNS
protocol also facilitates a seamless integration of IP and Fibre Channel networks,
due to its ability to emulate Fibre Channel fabric services, and manage both iSCSI
and Fibre Channel devices.

the listener grants a connection to the database server.
