Advanced Options
This section contains instructions for using the Oracle Net8 Assistant to configure advanced performance and naming options for each service name address.
Global Database Name
The Global Database Name is a unique name that identifies a database in a network. It consists of a database name and its network domain name. For example, a database named "sales" in a network domain component called "acme.com" would have the global database name of "sales.acme.com".To specify the Global Database Name, enter any valid name in the Global Database Name field provided.

Data Unit
A data unit is a buffer that allows Net8 to temporarily hold data before transmitting it across the network. Net8 sends the data either on request or when the buffer is full. Depending on your specific network, you can maximize the rate of data transfer and improve performance, by adjusting the size of the session data unit (SDU). The size of the unit should be a multiple of the normal transport frame size (for Ethernet, this is 1064).
Source Route
The source route identifies the listening address of Oracle Connection Manager followed by the destination address of the database service to which a client may connect. When source route is selected, Net8 will use the addresses specified to route a connection through Oracle Connection Manager to a destination server.
