Specify any of the following constants to set the necessary, non-default connection values for your Redis instance:
- WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_HOST – Hostname or IP of the Redis server, defaults to 127.0.0.1 .
- WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_PORT – Port of the Redis server, defaults to 6379 .
- WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_SOCKET – Path to a Unix socket file for the Redis server, if available. Takes precedence over the port value when set.
- WP_REDIS_USER_SESSION_AUTH – Password for the Redis server, if required.
