Hi,

Are you asking how to configure redis adapter to connect to a redis instance that requires basic auth?
According to the adapter docs (https://istio.io/docs/reference/config/policy-and-telemetry/adapters/redisquota/), I don’t think it supports authentication to redis.
Whether or not you use the handler kind is not important here, since the contents of the params is identical between the two.
