Configure Vyatta To Allow Incoming MySQL Connections

VyattaMysql - New Page

This article demonstrates how to configure a Vyatta firewall to allow incoming requests from a group of clients to an internal MySQL server.

Assuming that you have three external MySQL clients with IPv4 addresses:

[A:y.y.y.y]
[B:y.y.y.y]
[C:y.y.y.y]

We’ll put these addresses in a group called [clientgroup]. You can name the group appropriately for your installation.

The external address of the firewall is [x.x.x.x] and the internal address of the MySQL server is [z.z.z.z].
