Prefix for every Redis key this module writes.

**Signature:**

```typescript
redisPrefix?: string;
```

## Default Value

`'imq:http-protect'`

## Remarks

Two things live under it: one counter key per client IP, and the single block-list set at `<prefix>:block-list`. Change it when another module shares the same Redis instance, and keep it stable across deployments — changing it abandons the existing counters and, more importantly, the existing bans, since nothing migrates them.
