Question

The listener configuration contains these lines related to Valid Node Checking for Registration (VNCR); Which two statements are true?

Options

  • ABoth parameters cannot be set at the same time so will be Ignored.
  • BListener listener will allow instance registration from IP address 192.168.20.2.
  • CListener listener will allow Instance registration from
  • DListener listener will only deny instance registration from REGISTRATION EXCLUDED NODES
  • EListener listener will deny instance registration from IP address 192.168.20.2.

Explanation

Note: The listener configuration lines referenced in the question weren't included in the text provided, and Choice C appears truncated. The explanation below is based on Oracle VNCR principles, which is sufficient to understand the logic.

Why C is correct: VNCR uses REGISTRATION_INVITED_NODES_LISTENER (whitelist) and REGISTRATION_EXCLUDED_NODES_LISTENER (blacklist). When REGISTRATION_INVITED_NODES is configured, only explicitly listed nodes can register - Choice C correctly describes this allowance for the nodes specified in that parameter.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A - Both parameters can coexist in the configuration; however, when REGISTRATION_INVITED_NODES is present, it takes precedence and REGISTRATION_EXCLUDED_NODES is effectively ignored - they're not both ignored, just one yields to the other.
  • B - If 192.168.20.2 is absent from the INVITED_NODES list (or present in EXCLUDED_NODES), it cannot register, so "will allow" is incorrect.
  • D - The listener doesn't only deny EXCLUDED_NODES; when INVITED_NODES is set, it denies any node not on the invited list, a stricter whitelist model.
  • E - Whether 192.168.20.2 is denied depends on the actual node lists; this is not guaranteed by the configuration described.

Memory tip: Think "INVITED beats EXCLUDED" - when both parameters appear, the invited (whitelist) list wins, and the excluded list is silently bypassed. Whitelist = stricter, always wins.
