Finding node endpoints and port numbers

To connect to a cache node, your application needs to know the endpoint and port number for that node.

    A list of all clusters running the chosen engine appears.

  2. Continue below for the engine and configuration you're running.

  3. Choose the name of the cluster of interest.

  4. Locate the Port and Endpoint columns for the node you're interested in.

Finding cache node endpoints and port numbers (Amazon CLI)
