# Configuration
Tendermint Core can be configured via a TOML file in
`$TMHOME/config/config.toml`. Some of these parameters can be overridden by
command-line flags. For most users, the options in the `##### main base configuration options #####` are intended to be modified while
config options further below are intended for advance power users.
## Options
The default configuration file create by `tendermint init` has all
the parameters set with their default values. It will look something
like the file below, however, double check by inspecting the
`config.toml` created with your version of `tendermint` installed:
```
# This is a TOML config file.
# For more information, see https://github.com/toml-lang/toml
##### main base config options #####
# TCP or UNIX socket address of the ABCI application,
# or the name of an ABCI application compiled in with the Tendermint binary
proxy_app = "tcp://127.0.0.1:26658"
# A custom human readable name for this node

# allows them to catchup quickly by downloading blocks in parallel
# and verifying their commits
