Fair enough, although I would recommend it if you can. I found that not
having the full range available causes RMAN/NMO backups to fail, and not
necessarily the ones through the firewall. If you are not using RMAN/NMO
then perhaps you don't need to worry. I don't know whether any other
modules are affected. This is probably a bug but I never bothered to
follow it up.
I wonder sometimes whether it matters how many ports are opened. An open
port is no danger unless there is a service running on the other end of it.
I am looking for a limited amount of ports and it looks to be on the
client side from your info but just not sure how many per client??
In that case you can reduce the number of ports used at the NW server.
You definitely need 7937 and 7938, then I think it's one or two per
session, you would have to check in the admin guide for the version of
NW you are using.
