If you haven't already, [install the Google Cloud CLI](/sdk/docs).\n\n When prompted, choose the project that you selected or created above.\n2. If you already have the Google Cloud CLI installed, update it.\n\n ```\n gcloud components update\n ```\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\nCreating a Memorystore for Redis instance\n-----------------------------------------\n\nTo create a Memorystore for Redis instance:\n\n1. Open a terminal window.\n2. Set the project you'd like to create your instance in as the default project in `gcloud` by entering the following command:\n\n ```\n gcloud config set core/project PROJECT_ID\n ```\n3. Enter the following command to create a 2 GiB Basic Tier Redis instance in the `us-central1` region:\n\n ```\n gcloud redis instances create myinstance --size=2 --region=us-central1 \\\n --redis-version=redis_6_x\n ```\n4. After the instance is created, enter the `describe` command to get the IP address and port of the instance:\n\n ```\n gcloud redis instances describe myinstance --region=us-central1\n ```\n\n If successful, `gcloud` returns the following: \n\n ```\n authorizedNetwork: projects/my-project/global/networks/default\n createTime: '2018-04-09T21:47:56.824081Z'\n currentLocationId: us-central1-a\n host: 10.0.0.27\n locationId: us-central1-a\n memorySizeGb: 2\n name: projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/instances/myinstance\n networkThroughputGbps: 2\n port: 6379\n redisVersion: REDIS_6_X\n reservedIpRange: 10.0.0.24/29\n state: READY\n tier: BASIC\n ```\n\n \u003cbr /\u003e\n\n You'll use the `host` and `port` values to connect to the instance.\n\nConnecting to the Redis instance from a Compute Engine VM\n---------------------------------------------------------\n\nYou can connect to the Redis instance from any Compute Engine VM\nthat uses the Redis instance's authorized network with a [supported RFC 1918 IP address](/memorystore/docs/redis/networking#supported_and_unsupported_networks).\n\n1. If you don't already have a Compute Engine VM that uses that same\n authorized network as your Redis instance, create one and connect to it by\n following [Quickstart using a Linux VM](/compute/docs/create-linux-vm-instance).\n\n2. Install `telnet` using `apt-get`:\n\n sudo apt-get install telnet\n\n3. From the terminal, telnet to the IP address of the Redis instance, replacing\n \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003evariables\u003c/var\u003e with appropriate values.\n\n ```\n telnet instance-ip-address 6379\n ```\n\n If successful, the command will return this result: \n\n ```\n Trying instance-ip-address…\n Connected to instance-ip-address\n ```\n4. In the telnet session, enter some Redis commands:\n\n Enter: \n\n ```\n PING\n ```\n\n Result: \n\n ```\n PONG\n ```\n\n Enter \n\n ```\n SET HELLO WORLD\n ```\n\n Result: \n\n ```\n +OK\n ```\n\n Enter: \n\n ```\n GET HELLO\n ```\n\n Result: \n\n ```\n $5\n WORLD\n ```\n\nClean up\n--------\n\n\nTo avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account for\nthe resources used on this page, follow these steps.\n\n1. To avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account for the resources used in this quickstart, delete the instance by entering the following command:\n\n ```\n gcloud redis instances delete myinstance --region=us-central1\n ```\n2. Enter `Y` to confirm the instance to delete:\n\n ```\n You are about to delete instance [myinstance] in [us-central1].\n Any associated data will be lost.\n Do you want to continue (Y/n)? Y\n Delete request issued for: [myinstance]\n ```\n\n If successful, `gcloud` returns the following response: \n\n ```\n Deleted instance [myinstance].\n ```\n\n \u003cbr /\u003e\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- Learn more about [creating and managing instances](/memorystore/docs/redis/creating-managing-instances).\n- Learn about other ways to [connect to your Redis instance](/memorystore/docs/redis/connecting-redis-instance).\n- Learn about the characteristics of a [Redis instance](/memorystore/docs/redis/instances)."]]
