Example

# Listens on all interfaces (0.0.0.0) at port 1234, making the proxy accessible to the LAN
http-listen = 0.0.0.0:1234

Format

http-listen = {ip}:{port}

tip

To provide proxy service to your LAN, use 0.0.0.0 as the ip parameter. Using 127.0.0.1 restricts the service to the local device only.
