Tair (Redis® OSS-Compatible):Use a client to connect to an instance for which TLS (SSL) encryption is enabled

Last Updated:Nov 21, 2024

When you connect to a Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) instance by using a client, you can enable the TLS (SSL) encryption feature to enhance transport link security and ensure data integrity. You can connect to a Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) instance by using Redis-compliant clients of different programming languages. This topic provides sample code on how to connect to an instance by using common clients.

Prerequisites

  • TLS (SSL) encryption is enabled for your Tair instance. For more information, see Enable TLS encryption.

  • The client is hosted on an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance that resides in the same virtual private cloud (VPC) as the Tair instance.

Usage notes

If password-free access is enabled for an instance deployed in a VPC, clients that are located in the same VPC as the instance can connect to the instance without using passwords. For more information, see Enable password-free access.

Preparations

  1. Add the internal IP address of the ECS instance that hosts the client to a whitelist of the Tair instance. For more information, see Configure whitelists.

  2. Obtain the following information and use the information in client code of different programming languages.

    Item

    Description

    Instance endpoint

    Tair instances support multiple endpoint types. We recommend that you use VPC endpoints for higher security and lower network latency. For more information, see View endpoints.

    Port number

    Use the default port number 6379 or specify a custom port number. For more information, see Change the endpoint or port number of an instance.

    Instance account (optional for specific clients)

    By default, a Tair instance has a database account that is named after the instance ID. Example: r-bp10noxlhcoim2****. You can create another database account and grant the required permissions to the account. For more information, see Create and manage database accounts.

    Password

    The password format varies based on the selected account:

    • If you use the default account whose username is the same as the instance ID, enter the password.

    • If you use a custom account, enter the password in the <user>:<password> format. For example, if the username of the custom account is testaccount and the password is Rp829dlwa, enter testaccount:Rp829dlwa as the password.

    Note
    • If you use a third-party database management tool such as Remote Desktop Manager (RDM) to connect to a Tair instance, enter the password in the user:password format.

    • If you forget your password, you can reset it. For more information, see Change or reset the password.

  3. Download the certification authority (CA) certificate. For more information, see Enable TLS encryption.

Proxy connection mode

This mode is applicable to standard instances, cluster instances in proxy mode, and read/write splitting instances. Expand the following sample code based on your needs.

redis-cli

Before you can enable TLS encryption for your instance in redis-cli, you must set BUILD_TLS to yes when you compile Redis.

  1. Log on to the ECS instance. Then, download and install redis-cli.

    1. Run the following command to install the required dependencies:

      yum install openssl-devel gcc
    2. Run the following command to download the Redis source code package:

      wget https://download.redis.io/releases/redis-7.0.0.tar.gz
      Note

      In this example, Redis 7.0.0 is used to demonstrate the operations. You can install other versions. For more information, visit the Redis official website.

    3. Run the following command to decompress the Redis source code package:

      tar xzf redis-7.0.0.tar.gz
    4. Run the following command to go to the directory to which the source code package of Redis is decompressed. Compile and install the source code, and then set BUILD_TLS to yes.

      cd redis-7.0.0&&make BUILD_TLS=yes

      In most cases, 2 minutes to 3 minutes are required to compile and install Redis.

  2. Run the following command in redis-cli to connect to your instance:

    ./src/redis-cli -h r-bp14joyeihew30****.redis.rds.aliyuncs.com -p 6379 --tls --cacert ./ApsaraDB-CA-Chain.pem

    You must specify the path of the CA certificate in the wake of cacert.

  3. Run the following command to verify the password:

    AUTH password

    If the instance is connected by using redis-cli, OK is displayed.

Direct connection mode

This mode is applicable only to cluster instances in direct connection mode. Expand the following sample code based on your needs.

redis-cli

Before you can enable TLS encryption for your instance in redis-cli, you must set BUILD_TLS to yes when you compile Redis.

  1. Log on to the ECS instance. Then, download and install redis-cli.

    1. Run the following command to install the required dependencies:

      yum install openssl-devel gcc
    2. Run the following command to download the Redis source code package:

      wget https://download.redis.io/releases/redis-7.0.0.tar.gz
      Note

      In this example, Redis 7.0.0 is used to demonstrate the operations. You can install other versions. For more information, visit the Redis official website.

    3. Run the following command to decompress the Redis source code package:

      tar xzf redis-7.0.0.tar.gz
    4. Run the following command to go to the directory to which the source code package of Redis is decompressed. Compile and install the source code, and then set BUILD_TLS to yes.

      cd redis-7.0.0&&make BUILD_TLS=yes

      In most cases, 2 minutes to 3 minutes are required to compile and install Redis.

  2. Run the following command in redis-cli to connect to your instance:

    ./src/redis-cli -h r-bp14joyeihew30****.redis.rds.aliyuncs.com -p 6379 -c --tls --cacert ./ApsaraDB-CA-Chain.pem

    You must specify the path of the CA certificate in the wake of cacert.

FAQ

  • Why is the No subject alternative DNS name matching xxx found error returned?

    After TLS is enabled for the instance, the preceding error occurs if you modify the endpoint or port number of the instance and then connect to the instance by using TLS. Renew the TLS certificate in the console and try again.
