# 7.5 Enable ini settings

Advanced controls can be enabled through an ini file. By default the ini file does not exist. If you create this file and it is empty, the Network Optix Mediaserver will populate it with all available settings, their defaults, and some documentation.

Create an empty file by running:

```bash
sudo mkdir -p /home/networkoptix-metavms/.config/nx_ini 
sudo touch /home/networkoptix-metavms/.config/nx_ini/nxai_plugin.ini 
sudo chmod 666 /home/networkoptix-metavms/.config/nx_ini/nxai_plugin.ini
```

Then restart the mediaserver. Once the mediaserver is restarted the ini file should be filled with defaults.
