NOAUTH Authentication required

Kept getting “NOAUTH Authentication required” error message & not connected if I add WP_REDIS_PASSWORD constant on wp-config.php & uncomment requirepass & add my Redis password on redis.conf file. AUTH password command already issued & Redis server is running without issues. Everything’s fine if I don’t add any password. I already placed the WP_REDIS_PASSWORD constant on top of the other Redis connection parameters.

Do I even need a password authentication for my server setup for extra security or just fine without it? The server runs bare metal on an old Raspberry Pi Zero W running the latest Debian Bullseye. Using this primarily for a hobby pulling data on a Davis weather station network hub at home.
