Azure - Connect to SQL Server from my local machine

Question

I'd like to check what/how do I set to allow SQL Server being installed in Microsoft Windows Azure to be able to be connected from my local/domain machines?

TQ

Answer 1

Do you want to Access your Azure SQL database from your local machine?

You need to add the IP-address of your local machine to the allowed addresses that can access the database. You can do this in the azure management portal:

Sorry my screenshot is in German, but the link should be at the same Position. It should be called 'Manage allowed IP-addresses' or something similar in English. There you can add the IP-address of your local machine. After that you can access the database from that computer.
