2.1.2 Step 1 - Setting connection options
At this step you should specify necessary settings to establish connection to the source
MySQL database.
Connection settings
First select the connection type: local or remote.
Local connection is used to connect to MySQL server launched on the same machine
where Data Export 2010 for MySQL is running.
The Remote mode allows you to connect to MySQL server launched on another computer
in the network.
By default the program uses local connection. It is indicated by switch Local selected. If
you wish to establish remote connection, you should select the Remote switch. For
remote connection you should also enter MySQL host name in the Host field. The Host
drop-down list contains the list of already registered hosts. For both types you should
enter MySQL port to connect through in the Connection port field.
Afterwards you should specify authorization settings: Login and Password.
The default superuser name is 'root' and the default password is empty.
If necessary, use the drop-down list to specify the preferable Client charset to be used
by the application.

server is located, or to any other webserver from which direct connections to your MySQL
server are allowed. This script exposes the MySQL API as a set of web-services which is
used by Data Export 2010 for MySQL.
Note that the emsproxy.php script file is included into the distribution package and can
be found in Data Export installation directory.
For details see HTTP tunneling options 120 .
