# Redis

### Connecting to Redis <a href="#connecting-to-redis" id="connecting-to-redis"></a>

Set the Server connection property to the name or address of the server your Redis instance is running on.

If your Redis server is running on a port other than the default (6379), you can specify your port in the Port property.

### Authenticating to Redis <a href="#authenticating-to-redis" id="authenticating-to-redis"></a>

The provider supports Password and ACL authentication. Connections to Redis instances that aren't password protected are supported as well.

#### No Authentication <a href="#no-authentication" id="no-authentication"></a>

Set the AuthScheme property to None. This indicates the Redis instance is not password protected (using the requirepass directive in the configuration file).

#### Password <a href="#password" id="password"></a>

Set the AuthScheme property to Password and set the Password property to the password used to authenticate with a password protected Redis instance using the Redis AUTH command.

#### ACL (Access Control List) <a href="#acl-access-control-list" id="acl-access-control-list"></a>

Set the following to connect:

* AuthScheme: Set this to ACL.
* User: Set this to the username you use to authenticate with Redis ACL.
* Password: Set this to the password you use to authenticate with Redis ACL.

### Securing Redis Connections <a href="#securing-redis-connections" id="securing-redis-connections"></a>

You can set UseSSL to negotiate SSL/TLS encryption when you connect.
