Connection IP address for keystone DB

[blair]

Could the documentation state in this connection string:

connection = mysql://keystoneUser:[email protected]/keystone

if the IP address is needed or not? In other words, is the IP address shared with other clients so they can connect, as my tendency would be to use 127.0.0.1 there instead.

Thanks,
Blair

I believe that 10.32.14.232 is the example IP address used throughout the document, and was added there for consistency?

@rcloran Not sure if allowing only local connections makes sense here?

I just did a deployment on a single box with nova, glance, cinder, keystone and used localhost everywhere and its working. So it's definitely nicer to use than a hardcoded IP if you need to re-IP the box.
