# Configuration Files
|
||
|
|
||
|
To help deployment of locally different configurations, n2n supports the use of configuration files for `edge` and `supernode`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
They are plain text files and contain the desired command line options, **one per line**.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The exemplary command line
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo edge -c mynetwork -k mysecretpass -a 192.168.100.1 -f -l supernode.ntop.org:7777
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
translates into the following `edge.conf` file:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
-c mynetwork
|
||
|
-k mysecretpass
|
||
|
-a 192.168.100.1
|
||
|
-f
|
||
|
-l supernode.ntop.org:7777
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
which can be loaded by
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
sudo ./edge edge.conf
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `.conf` file syntax also allows `=` between parameter and its option:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
-c=mynetwork
|
||
|
-k=mysecretpass
|
||
|
-a=192.168.100.1
|
||
|
-f
|
||
|
-l=supernode.ntop.org:7777
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
When used with `=`, there is no whitespace allowed between parameter, delimter (`=`), and option. So, do **not** put `-c = mynetwork` – it is required to be `-c=mynetwork`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Comment lines starting with a hash '#' are ignored.

|
||
|
-c mynetwork
|
||
|
-k mysecretpass
|
||
|
-a 192.168.100.1
|
||
|
-f
|
||
|
# --- supernode section ---
|
||
|
-l supernode.ntop.org:7777
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Long options can be used as well. Please note the double minus/dash character `--`, just like on command line:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|

|
||
|
--community mynetwork
|
||
|
-k mysecretpass
|
||
|
-a 192.168.100.1
|
||
|
-f
|
||
|
# --- supernode section ---
|
||
|
-l supernode.ntop.org:7777
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If using a configuration file, its filename needs to be supplied as first parameter to `edge` or `supernode`. If required, additional command line parameters can be supplied afterwards:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
sudo edge edge.conf -A5
|
||
|
```
