### Settings example
You can connect Evennia to the Internet without any changes to your settings. The default settings are easy to use but are not necessarily the safest. You can customize your online presence in your [settings file](https://github.com/evennia/evennia/wiki/Server-Conf#settings-file). To have Evennia recognize changed port settings you have to do a full `evennia reboot` to also restart the Portal and not just the Server component.

Below is an example of a simple set of settings, mostly using the defaults. Evennia will require access to five computer ports, of which three (only) should be open to the outside world. Below we continue to assume that our server address is `203.0.113.0`.

```
The `AMP_PORT` is required to work, since this is the internal port linking Evennia's [Server and Portal](Portal-and-Server) components together. The other ports are encrypted ports that may be useful for custom protocols but are otherwise not used.

- Usually runs a Linux flavor, making it easy to install Evennia.
- Support. You don't need to maintain the server hardware. If your house burns down, at least your game stays online. Many services guarantee a certain level of up-time and also do regular backups for you. Make sure to check, some offer lower rates in exchange for you yourself being fully responsible for your data/backups.
- Usually offers a fixed domain name, so no need to mess with IP addresses.
- May have the ability to easily deploy [docker](https://github.com/evennia/evennia/wiki/Running-Evennia-in-Docker) versions of evennia and/or your game.
- May have the ability to easily deploy [docker](Running-Evennia-in-Docker) versions of evennia and/or your game.
**Disadvantages**
- Might be pretty expensive (more so than a web hotel). Note that Evennia will normally need at least 100MB RAM and likely much more for a large production game.

#### Installing Evennia on a remote server
Firstly, if you are familiar with server infrastructure, consider using [Docker](https://github.com/evennia/evennia/wiki/Running-Evennia-in-Docker) to deploy your game to the remote server; it will likely ease installation and deployment. Docker images may be a little confusing if you are completely new to them though.

If not using docker, and assuming you know how to connect to your account over ssh/PuTTy, you should be able to follow the [Getting Started](Getting-Started) instructions normally. You only need Python and GIT pre-installed; these should both be available on any servers (if not you should be able to easily ask for them to be installed). On a VPS or Cloud service you can install them yourself as needed.
