About this task

To use order-preserving encryption types or encryption patterns, a MySQL database running in your network is mandatory. This task connects the proxy to the database, but it does not install or configure the database.
Note: If using multiple proxy servers, all proxy servers must use the same proxy database. The values entered in the installer must be the same for all proxy servers.

  2. In the Name field, enter the name of the proxy database.
    The default value is edgeencryption.
  3. Enter the username and password for accessing the proxy database.
  4. Click Next.
