port/protocol for sqlplus connectivity

#1

Hello, We were having trouble connecting to Oracle 8.1.7 running on a
Solaris machine. We assumed this was because a firewall blocked access
to port 1521. When we requested that our IT group open up that port,
we were asked, which protocol, UDP or TCP?

Does protocol matter? What protocol is used when communicating with
Oracle using a tool like sqlplus?

Thanks for any advice, - Dave
