* Remove Auth/Proxy instructions from DB guides Closes #11538 A number of our Database Service guides instruct the user to install the Auth Service and the Proxy Service. For users who have already set up these services, these instructions add friction. For users who have _not_ set up these services, Teleport has existing instructions that users can follow instead. This change edits our Database Access guides to require the user to have a running Teleport cluster as a prerequisite, in line with how-to guides in other sections of the docs. Note that, while the issue this change closes is to add Auth/Proxy Service setup instructions to _more_ places in the docs, this change follows our style guide recommendation (#20024) to add steps to the Prerequisites section if we have them documented elsewhere and they don't directly pertain to the goal of a how-to guide. * Respond to PR feedback Change H3s to H2s --------- Co-authored-by: Alex Fornuto <alex.fornuto@goteleport.com>

|
|
|
|
This guide will help you to:
|
|
|
|
- Install Teleport `(=teleport.version=)`.
|
|
- Set up Teleport to access your MySQL on Google Cloud SQL.
|
|
- Connect to your databases through Teleport.

## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/edition-prereqs-tabs.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
<Notice type="warning">
|
|
|
|
Teleport Database Access for Cloud SQL MySQL is available starting from the
|
|
`7.0` release.
|
|
|
|
</Notice>
|
|
|
|
- Google Cloud account
|
|
- A host, e.g., a Compute Engine instance, where you will run the Teleport Database
|
|
Service
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/tctl.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
## Step 1/5. Create a service account for the Teleport Database Service
|
|
|
|
Teleport uses one-time passwords to authenticate with Cloud SQL MySQL. To be
|
|
able to authenticate with a database instance, Teleport must run as a service
|
|
account that has a few of the "Cloud SQL Admin" role permissions. You can create
|
|
a new service account or modify an existing one to add required permissions.
|
|
|
|
### Create a service account
|
|
|
|
If creating a new service account, go to the
|
|
[Service Accounts](https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts)
|
|
page and create another service account:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Grant permissions
|
|
|
|
Assign the Service Account the "Cloud SQL Admin" role:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
<Admonition type="note" title="Service account permissions">
|
|
The default "Cloud SQL Admin" IAM role includes more permissions than the
|
|
Database Service needs to generate one-time user passwords. To further restrict
|
|
the service account, you can create a role that includes only the following
|
|
permissions:
|
|
```ini
|
|
# Used to download a list of database users.
|
|
cloudsql.users.list
|
|
# Used to update a user with a one-time password.
|
|
cloudsql.users.update
|
|
# Used to auto-download the instance's root CA certificate.
|
|
cloudsql.instances.get
|
|
# Used to generate an ephemeral client certificate when the GCP instance
|
|
# is configured to "Allow only SSL connections." (optional)
|
|
cloudsql.sslCerts.createEphemeral
|
|
```
|
|
</Admonition>
|
|
|
|
### Create a key for the service account
|
|
|
|
Once created, go to that service account's Keys tab and create a new key:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Make sure to choose JSON format:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Save the file. Your Teleport Database Service will need to use it as GCP
|
|
application credentials file.
|
|
|
|
## Step 2/5. Gather Cloud SQL instance information
|
|
|
|
To connect a Cloud SQL database to Teleport, you'll need to gather a few pieces
|
|
of information about the instance.
|
|
|
|
- GCP Project ID.
|
|
|
|
You can normally see it in the organization view at the top of the GCP dashboard.
|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance ID.
|
|
|
|
The instance ID is the name of your Cloud SQL instance shown at the top of the
|
|
Overview page:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance endpoint.
|
|
|
|
You will use the instance's public IP address to connect to it. It can be viewed
|
|
on the "Connect to this instance" panel on the Overview page:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Cloud SQL instance root certificate.
|
|
|
|
The instance's root certificate is required so Teleport can validate the
|
|
certificate presented by the database instance. You can download `server-ca.pem`
|
|
file from the Connections tab under Security section:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Step 3/5. Set up the Teleport Database Service
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/database-access/token.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
Install Teleport on the host where you will run the Teleport Database Service:
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/install-linux.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
### Create a user
|
|
|
|
(!docs/pages/includes/database-access/create-user.mdx!)
|
|
|
|
## Step 4/5. Set up the Teleport Database service
|
|
|
|
Below is an example of a database service configuration file that proxies
|
|
a single Cloud SQL MySQL database:
|
|
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["oss", "enterprise"]}>
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
version: v3
|
|
teleport:
|
|
data_dir: /var/lib/teleport-db
|
|
nodename: test
|
|
# Proxy address to connect to. Note that it has to be the proxy address
|
|
# because the Database Service always connects to the cluster over a reverse
|
|
# tunnel.
|
|
proxy_server: teleport.example.com:3080
|
|
db_service:
|
|
enabled: "yes"
|
|
# This section contains definitions of all databases proxied by this
|
|
# service. Can contain multiple items.
|
|
databases:
|
|
# Name of the database proxy instance. Used to reference in CLI.
|
|
- name: "cloudsql"
|
|
# Free-form description of the database proxy instance.
|
|
description: "GCP Cloud SQL MySQL"
|
|
# Database protocol.
|
|
protocol: "mysql"
|
|
# Database endpoint. For Cloud SQL use instance's public IP address.
|
|
uri: "35.1.2.3:3306"
|
|
# Path to Cloud SQL instance root certificate you downloaded above.
|
|
ca_cert_file: /path/to/cloudsql/instance/root.pem
|
|
# GCP-specific configuration when connecting a Cloud SQL instance.
|
|
gcp:
|
|
# GCP project ID.
|
|
project_id: "<project-id>"
|
|
# Cloud SQL instance ID.
|
|
instance_id: "test"
|
|
# Labels to assign to the database, used in RBAC.
|
|
static_labels:
|
|
env: dev
|
|
auth_service:
|
|
enabled: "no"
|
|
ssh_service:
|
|
enabled: "no"
|
|
proxy_service:
|
|
enabled: "no"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["cloud"]}>
|
|

|
|

proxy_server: mytenant.teleport.sh:443
|

|

```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
|
|
<Admonition
|
|
type="tip"
|
|
title="Tip"
|
|
>
|
|
A single Teleport process can run multiple different services, for example
|
|
multiple Database Access instances as well as other services such the SSH
|
|
Service or Application Service.
|
|
</Admonition>
|
|
|
|
Start the Database Service:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ teleport start --config=/path/to/teleport-db.yaml --token=/tmp/token
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### GCP credentials
|
|
|
|
The Teleport Database Service must have the credentials of `teleport-db-service` GCP
|
|
service account we created
|
|
[above](#step-15-create-a-service-account-for-the-teleport-database-service) in order to
|
|
be able to log in.
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to ensure that is to set the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS`
|
|
environment variable to point to the JSON credentials file you downloaded
|
|
earlier.
|
|
|
|
See [Authenticating as a service account](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/production)
|
|
in the Google Cloud documentation for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Step 5/5. Connect
|
|
|
|
Once the Database Service has joined the cluster, log in to see the available
|
|
databases:
|
|
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["oss", "enterprise"]}>
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh login --proxy=teleport.example.com --user=alice
|
|
$ tsh db ls
|
|
# Name Description Labels
|
|
# -------- ------------------- --------
|
|
# cloudsql GCP Cloud SQL MySQL env=dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
<ScopedBlock scope={["cloud"]}>
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh login --proxy=mytenant.teleport.sh --user=alice
|
|
$ tsh db ls
|
|
# Name Description Labels
|
|
# -------- ------------------- --------
|
|
# cloudsql GCP Cloud SQL MySQL env=dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</ScopedBlock>
|
|
|
|
Note that you will only be able to see databases your role has access to. See
|
|
our [RBAC](../rbac.mdx) guide for more details.
|
|
|
|
To retrieve credentials for a database and connect to it:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh db connect cloudsql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can optionally specify the database user and database name to use by default
|
|
when connecting to the database instance:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
$ tsh db connect --db-user=alice --db-name=mysql cloudsql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Admonition type="note" title="Note">
|
|
The `mysql` command-line client should be available in PATH in order to be
|
|
able to connect.
|
|
</Admonition>
|
|
|
|
To log out of the database and remove credentials:
|
|
|
|
```code
|
|
# Remove credentials for a particular database instance.
|
|
$ tsh db logout cloudsql
|
|
# Remove credentials for all database instances.
|
|
$ tsh db logout
|
|
```
