What form of musical composition is Beethoven's Opus28, in D major, which is known as the 'Pastoral'?

I can't decide whether the answer is Sonata or Symphony as both are referred to in various websites.  Can anyone please clarify the difference?

I'm even more confused.  All I want to know is whether the answer is sonata or symphony.  Opus 28 (Pastoral) is referred to as both in different websites.  I'm not sure how Opus 68 is also known as Pastoral, or even if that is relevant.

Cheers
