> In the Single Server deployment option, a gateway redirects the connections to server instances. After the connection is established, the MySQL client displays the version of MySQL set in the gateway, not the actual version running on your MySQL server instance. To determine the version of your MySQL server instance, use the `SELECT VERSION();` command at the MySQL prompt. If your application has a requirement to connect to a specific major version, say v5.7 or v8.0, you can do so by changing the port in your server connection string as explained in our documentation [here.](concepts-supported-versions.md#connect-to-a-gateway-node-that-is-running-a-specific-mysql-version)
