https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/databases-for-redis?topic=databases-for-redis-connecting-cli-client

What do you think needs to be updated?

The doc page says that the official Redis CLI, redis-cli does not support secure connections (TLS). This is incorrect at least with version 8.x of the Redis CLI. Arguably, the entire doc page needs to be rewritten and simplified. It isn't clear why the IBM tool, redli is needed any longer.

Example of redis-cli working just fine:

~/dev/jdux-cn-ai/redis-test $ redis-cli -u rediss://ibm_cloud_6e2c598b_29ea_4688_8797_d88f89f4d127:v2nH05oYK4l7EdmTLNWLdhAcKFbWumEd@2226619d-57a3-4d0b-96fc-af75fa65c020.8117147f814b4b2ea643610826cd2046.databases.appdomain.cloud:30851/0 --tls --cacert ./cert.crt

Version of Redis CLI:

~/dev/jdux-cn-ai/redis-test $ redis-cli --version
redis-cli 8.0.1
