  • --host= - Router external IP for incoming connections
  • --port= - Port to listen for incoming connections (default: auto)

Config files

INI-like, syntax is the following : = . Comments are "#", not ";" as you may expect. See boost ticket All command-line parameters are allowed as keys, but note for those which contains dot (.).

For example:

i2pd.conf:

# comment
log = true
ipv6 = true
# settings for specific module
[httpproxy]
port = 4444
# ^^ this will be --httproxy.port= in cmdline
# another comment
[sam]
enabled = true

See also commented config with examples of all options in docs/i2pd.conf.

tunnels.conf:

# outgoing tunnel sample, to remote service
# mandatory parameters:
# * type -- always "client"
# * port -- local port to listen to
# * destination -- i2p hostname
# optional parameters (may be omitted)
# * keys -- our identity, if unset, will be generated on every startup,
#     if set and file missing, keys will be generated and placed to this file
# * address -- local interface to bind
# * signaturetype -- signature type for new destination. 0 (DSA/SHA1), 1 (EcDSA/SHA256) or 7 (EdDSA/SHA512)
[IRC]
type = client
address = 127.0.0.1
port = 6668
