Connecting to MySQL Studio

Since the MySQL Studio endpoint is not directly accessible from the internet, you need to use a networking service such as a VPN connection or network load balancer to access MySQL Studio endpoint.

Use one of the following methods to access the MySQL Studio endpoint:

• VPN Connection: A VPN connection bridges your local network with the VCN of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. You can use site-to-site VPN, FastConnect, or OpenVPN Access Server to create a VPN connection. To learn how to create a VPN connection, see VPN Connection.
  Note
  
  While Configuring a VCN for OpenVPN Access Server Connections, to add ingress rules for the VPN Static IP addresses, use the default port number assigned to the MySQL Studio endpoint, which is 8443.
  After you have completed the steps to set up a VPN connection, you can open the MySQL Studio application on a web browser using the private endpoint of MySQL Studio displayed in the Tools tab of the DB system details page. For more information, see Tools.
• Network load balancer: A network load balancer enables you to connect to MySQL Studio over the internet. Restrict the authorized public IP addresses to a single IP address or a small range of IP addresses, and use in-transit encryption. See Network Load Balancer.
