以下是一个简短的示例，演示了如何部署 MySQL Router 以使用 InnoDB 集群进行引导。有关更多信息，请参见 --bootstrap 以及其他 引导选项。

此示例使用 --directory 选项创建一个独立的 MySQL Router 实例，启用套接字，使用 --account 自定义 Router 的 MySQL 用户名，并将 --account-create 设置为 always，以便仅在帐户不存在时才进行引导。此示例假设已存在名为 myCluster 的 InnoDB 集群。

$> mysqlrouter --bootstrap root@localhost:3310 --directory /tmp/myrouter 
  --conf-use-sockets --account routerfriend --account-create always

Please enter MySQL password for root: 

# Bootstrapping MySQL Router instance at '/tmp/myrouter'...

Please enter MySQL password for routerfriend: 

- Creating account(s) 
- Verifying account (using it to run SQL queries that would be run by Router)
- Storing account in keyring
- Adjusting permissions of generated files
- Creating configuration /tmp/myrouter/mysqlrouter.conf

# MySQL Router configured for the InnoDB Cluster 'myCluster'

After this MySQL Router has been started with the generated configuration

    $ mysqlrouter -c /tmp/myrouter/mysqlrouter.conf

the cluster 'myCluster' can be reached by connecting to:

## MySQL Classic protocol

- Read/Write Connections: localhost:6446, /tmp/myrouter/mysql.sock
- Read/Only Connections:  localhost:6447, /tmp/myrouter/mysqlro.sock

## MySQL X protocol

- Read/Write Connections: localhost:6448, /tmp/myrouter/mysqlx.sock
- Read/Only Connections:  localhost:6449, /tmp/myrouter/mysqlxro.sock

此时，引导过程已创建了一个包含所需文件的 mysqlrouter.conf 文件，并在指定目录中，结果将显示如何启动此 MySQL Router 实例。生成的 MySQL Router 目录类似于

$> ls -l | awk '{print $9}'

data/
log/
mysqlrouter.conf
mysqlrouter.key
run/
start.sh
stop.sh

生成的 MySQL Router 配置文件 (mysqlrouter.conf) 类似于

在此示例中，MySQL Router 配置了四个端口和四个套接字。端口默认添加，套接字通过传入 --conf-use-sockets 添加。名为“myCluster”的 InnoDB 集群是元数据的来源，destinations 使用 InnoDB 集群元数据缓存来动态配置主机信息。相关的命令行选项

为了演示 MySQL Router 的行为，以下客户端（应用程序）连接到端口 6446，但连接到端口 3310 上的 MySQL 实例。

$> mysql -u root -h 127.0.0.1 -P 6446 -p

...

mysql> select @@port;

| @@port |
