# Welcome page, Typical or Minimal Install Mode

Welcome to Net8 Configuration Assistant in the Typical or Minimal installation modes. Net8 Configuration Assistant configures the following:

- Default network domain in the sqlnet.ora file

  The computer's network domain will automatically be selected as the default domain. The domain will be appended to any unqualified net service name given in the connect string and then compared to net service names stored in a tnsnames.ora file or Oracle Names server. For example, if the client `tnsnames.ora` file contains a net service name of `sales.us.acme.com`, the user can enter the following connect string:

  `CONNECT scott/tiger@sales`

  `sales` gets searched as `sales.us.acme.com`.

- Two net service names in the tnsnames.ora file

  One net service name is automatically be established for connections to external procedures.

  Net8 Configuration Assistant prompts you to configure a net service name for a client connection to the database.

- Directory access configuration

  You are prompted to configure access to a directory server.

  | Note: You are not prompted to configure directory access on the server during a Typical or Minimal installation.

- Two default listener protocol addresses in the `listener.ora` file

  One address will use TCP/IP on port 1521 and the other will use IPC for client connections to the Oracle database.

| Note: Net8 Configuration Assistant provides basic configuration. For more advanced configuration operations, or to configure other portions of Net8 that this tool does not cover, use the Net8 Assistant.
