Which of the following ports does RDS for MySQL listen on by default?

The port 3306 is the default port on which MySQL is usually configured. This port is used by MySQL clients and applications to connect to the MySQL server. If you are using any other port, you should allow traffic to that specific port instead. Alibaba Cloud RDS for MySQL also uses this port by default, unless you specify a different port when creating the RDS instance. You can view and modify the port number of your RDS instance in the RDS console. References: How to configure an Amazon RDS environment for MySQL, Connecting to a DB instance running the MySQL database engine, [Create an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance]
