In fact, using such a proxy doubles the amount of packets transferred.

What you should have better done: use DNS instead of fixed IP addresses. That
way you could have had

  mysql IN A 127.0.0.1

before, and now change it noproblem to

  mysql IN A 192.168.123.45

But you have not, so better deal with it ;-)
