Check MySQL port

To test the port on which MySQL is running

#sudo netstat -nlp | grep -i mysql

It will give output like


tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:3306                0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      4959/mysqld
unix  2      [ ACC ]     STREAM     LISTENING     133857 4959/mysqld         /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

The above MySQL is running on 3306 port
