Remote access to MySQL-server

Introduction

A MySQL server can accept incoming connections from specific IP addresses. By default every MySQL-server listens to local IP address 127.0.0.1, every MariaDB server accepts all connections (i.e. it listens 0.0.0.0). In Ispmanager Lite (Pro, Host) you can set up remote access.

This function is not available for PostgreSQL

Navigate to Settings → Database servers → select a server, and click Edit. On the form that will open, enable remote access, and select an IP address.

Creating a database user

If Remote access is enabled for the server where a user should be located, the corresponding checkbox will be hidden on the user configuration form.
