# 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 repository in [conf.py](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/blob/master/lbrynet/conf.py).
|
|
|
|
## Daemon settings configuration
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to configure the settings is by editing the `daemon_settings.yml` file (may need to be created) that resides in the default [lbrynet directory](https://lbry.io/faq/lbry-directories). These settings can also be configured via the [settings_set](https://lbry.tech/api/protocol#settings_set) API call. The [settings_get](https://lbry.tech/api/protocol#settings_get) API call can be used to retrieve current values. Currently not all settings are made available via the API calls, see [GitHub issue 1374](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/issues/1374).
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
