2.3.4.9. The Networking and Strict Mode Options Dialog
Use the dialog to enable
or disable TCP/IP networking and to configure the port number
that is used to connect to the MySQL server.
TCP/IP networking is enabled by default. To disable TCP/IP
networking, uncheck the box next to the option.
Port 3306 is used by default. To change the port used to
access MySQL, choose a new port number from the drop-down box
or type a new port number directly into the drop-down box. If
the port number you choose is in use you are prompted to
confirm your choice of port number.
Set the to either enable or
disable strict mode. Enabling strict mode (default) makes
MySQL behave more like other database management systems.
If you run applications that rely on MySQL's old
“forgiving” behavior, make sure to either adapt
those applications or to disable strict mode. For
more information about strict mode, see
Section 5.2.5, “The Server SQL Mode”.
