Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to enable TLS encryption in Redis configuration.

Redis

tls-port [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the default Redis port 6379 disables TLS.

Setting tls-port to 0 disables TLS port.

The default TLS port for Redis is 6380, so setting tls-port 6380 enables TLS connections.

medium

Complete the code to specify the TLS certificate file path in Redis configuration.

Redis

tls-cert-file [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A/etc/redis/redis.crt

B/etc/redis/redis.key

C/etc/redis/redis.conf

D/etc/redis/redis.pem

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the key file instead of the certificate file.

Using the configuration file path instead of a certificate.

The tls-cert-file option points to the TLS certificate file, usually with a .crt extension.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the Redis TLS configuration line to specify the CA certificate file.

Redis

tls-ca-cert-file [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A/etc/redis/ca.crt

B/etc/redis/redis.key

C/etc/redis/ca.key

D/etc/redis/redis.conf

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the CA key file instead of the CA certificate.

Using the Redis key or config file instead of CA certificate.

The CA certificate file must be a certificate file, usually ending with .crt, not a key or config file.

hard

Fill both blanks to enable TLS and disable the non-TLS port in Redis configuration.

Redis

tls-port [1]
port [2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Leaving the non-TLS port enabled by not setting it to 0.

Using the default port 6379 for TLS port.

Setting tls-port to 6380 enables TLS port, and setting port to 0 disables the non-TLS port.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to configure Redis TLS with certificate, key, and CA certificate files.

Redis

tls-cert-file [1]
tls-key-file [2]
tls-ca-cert-file [3]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A/etc/redis/redis.crt

B/etc/redis/redis.key

C/etc/redis/ca.crt

D/etc/redis/redis.conf

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up certificate and key file paths.

Using config files instead of certificate or key files.

The tls-cert-file should point to the certificate file, tls-key-file to the private key file, and tls-ca-cert-file to the CA certificate file.
