# Configurable settings for the LBRY daemon
This document outlines how to configure daemon settings and what options are available. They can be found on the lbry GitHub reposition in [conf.py](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/blob/master/lbrynet/conf.py).
## Daemon settings configuration
The easiest way to configure the settings is via the `daemon_settings.yml` in the default [lbrynet directory](https://lbry.io/faq/lbry-directories). These settings will also be made available (currently only a few are) via the [settings_set](https://lbry.tech/api/protocol#settings_set).
Sample daemon_settings.yml file:
```
peer_port: 3335
lbryum_servers: ['lbryumx1.lbry.io:50001','lbryumx2.lbry.io:50001']
download_directory: 'c:\lbry\Downloads'
use_upnp: false
```
## Configuration options
Cofiguration options are separted by their respective areas: Files, Wallet, Network, Security and Other.
