MySQL Router is configured using a required configuration file, additional optional configuration files, and options available from the command line.

Bootstrapping is the preferred and common approach to generating a MySQL Router configuration file. For additional information, see --bootstrap. Bootstrapping generates a fully functional mysqlrouter.conf file.

For command-line syntax related information and options, see Section 4.3.1, “Defining Options Using the Command Line”.
