# tuna and MySQL

## Step 1. Download the client

Instructions are available on the [installation page](https://tuna.am/en/docs/guides/install.md).

## Step 2. Start the MySQL server

## Step 3. Run tuna

MySQL uses port `3306` by default:

```bash
tuna tcp 3306

```

As a result of running the command, a connection address will be displayed on the screen (for example, `ru.tuna.am:12345`), which can now be used to connect to MySQL.
