Can not connect to redis server

I’m new to Redis.

I’ve started a Redis server on an EC2 instance and can connect using the command:

$ redis6-cli -h localhost
localhost:6379>

However, when I try to connect using the public IP address from the same machine, the connection times out:

redis6-cli -h x.x.x.x -p 6379
Could not connect to Redis at x.x.x.x:6379: Connection timed out

I’ve already allowed access to port 6379 in security group for this instance for all ip addresses.

    you can use ‘ping x.x.x.x’, successful?
    after, user ‘talnet x.x.x.x 6379’, successful?

    A few settings would affect this: bind and protected mode.

    Find bind in your redis.conf file and change as follows:

    bind 127.0.0.1 <your IP>

    if you are not using password security, you’ll have to turn off protected mode by changing:

    protected-mode yes

    To:

    protected-mode no

    Then restart redis.
