NetBox Configuration

NetBox's local configuration is stored in $INSTALL_ROOT/netbox/netbox/configuration.py. An example configuration is provided as configuration.example.py. You may copy or rename the example configuration and make changes as appropriate. NetBox will not run without a configuration file.

While NetBox has many configuration settings, only a few of them must be defined at the time of installation.

Configuration Parameters

Changing the Configuration

Configuration settings may be changed at any time. However, the WSGI service (e.g. Gunicorn) must be restarted before the changes will take effect:

$ sudo systemctl restart netbox
