I want to know what is the protocol that is used by JDBC to connect to MySQL Database that is present on an other host.
My client has only http and https access restricted to his host. I want an application on another host to communicate with that MySQL Database available on my client's host.
Please note my Client uses WINDOWS 2012 SERVER
He has asked me the protocols and ports my application is using to connect to MySQL so that he would enable them.
Request you to help.
By default mysql server uses 3306/tcp port but this is configurable. They should open up only the port that the server is listening on. Regarding the protocol it is mysql specific, you can find more info at the official documentation
