If you have chosen Redis then fill in the fields below:

* **Hostname or IP Address** - This is the hostname or IP address of your Redis server (I would run it locally to be safe).
* **Port** - The port that your Redis server is running on.
* **Password** - Optional authentication password for Redis ([Setting up a Redis password](securing-redis.md)).
