<h1>Creating Net Service Alias Dialog Box</h1>
<p>The Create Net Service Alias dialog box enables you to create <a href="nmhelp_net_service_alias.htm">net service aliases</a> in a directory server.</p>
<p>A net service alias is an alternative name for a <a href="n8ahelpnet_service_name.htm">net service name</a> or database service. A net service alias entry does not have connect descriptor information. Instead, it only references the location of the object for which it is an alias. When a client requests a directory lookup of a net service alias, the directory determines that the entry is a net service alias and completes the lookup as if it is the referenced entry. For example, a net service alias of db1alias can be created for a database service of db1. When <code dir="ltr">db1alias</code> is used to connect to a database service, as in <code dir="ltr">CONNECT scott/tiger@db1alias,</code> it will actually resolve to and use the connect descriptor information for db1.</p>
<p>There are two main uses of net service aliases:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Use a net service alias as a way for clients to refer to a database service or net service name by another name.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Use a net service alias in one <a href="n8ahelporacle_context.htm">Oracle Context</a> for a database service or net service name in a different Oracle Context. This enables a database service or net service name to be defined once in the directory server, but referred to by clients that use other Oracle Contexts.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><span class="bold">Net Service Alias</span></p>
<p>Enter the name of the net service alias.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Net Service Name or Database Service</span></p>
<p>Use the Net Service Name or Database Service box to enter information about the database service or net service name:</p>
<p><span class="bold">Oracle Context:</span> Specify the Oracle Context of the database service or net service name by selecting one from the list or entering one in the field.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Name:</span> Specify the <a href="n8ahelpdistinguished_name_dn.htm">distinguished name (DN)</a> of the database service or net service name by selecting one from the list or entering one in the field.</p>
