title: MySQL port 3306 vs 3307 Differences
body: <p>This is more of a general Question regarding MySQL Database connections. I am looking to get clarification regarding the difference between MySQL's port 3306 (default) and port 3307. I haven't been able to find a lot of information truly explaining the differences. Is there a difference beyond just another port that MySQL can listen to? Is one port suppose to be more secure than the other? Do they both use TCP secured connections?</p>
  
  <p>All help is appreciated. </p>
  
  <p>Also, please let me know if I am asking this question in the wrong place. Normally I don't ask generalized questions...</p>
