If using order-preserving encryption types or encryption patterns, you can optionally
configure the Edge Encryption proxy database
properties.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

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.  
Hinweis:  
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.

## Prozedur

1. Confirm or change the database URL, which is the location of the proxy database.
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.
