Redis Remote Connection Setup Guide

To enable remote connections in Redis, you need to follow these steps:

1. Open the Redis configuration file, locate the line in redis.conf that reads “bind 127.0.0.1”, and either comment it out or change it to “bind 0.0.0.0”, allowing Redis to listen for requests on all network interfaces.
2. Open the firewall port for Redis to ensure that the port 6379 on the Redis server can be accessed from outside. This can be done by adjusting the firewall rules or by setting it in the cloud service provider’s console.
3. Restart the Redis service to apply the configuration changes.
4. When connecting to a remote client, use Redis-cli or other Redis client tools, specifying the IP address and port number of the Redis server, such as: redis-cli -h -p .

Configuring Redis to allow remote connections through the above steps is possible. It is important to note that remote connections to Redis pose certain security risks, so it is recommended to enhance security measures in a production environment, such as setting passwords and limiting IP access.
