Do the JDBC Drivers work with firewalls?
Yes, both the JDBC OCI driver and the thin JDBC driver can work in both an Intranet and in an Extranet setting. In an Extranet deployment, the drivers can be used with most industry leading firewalls which have been SQL*Net certified. Today, the following firewall vendors have certified their Firewalls with SQL*Net: Stateful Inspection Firewalls: Firewalls from Checkpoint, SunSoft, and CISCO Systems. Proxy-based Firewalls: Firewalls from Milkyway Networks, Trusted Information Systems, Raptor, Secure Computing Corporation, and Global Internet.
