Docroot configuration options.

The following table lists all configuration options:

Field	Description	Values	Default
Absolute Path	The Absolute Path is a path to the docroot, the area of the file system that is accessible to Aspera users. The default empty value gives users access to the entire file system. In aspera.conf, you can set multiple docroots and make them conditional based on the IP address from which the connection is made. To do so, set the absolute path as follows: <absolute peer_ip="ip_address">path</absolute> Note: You may also specify an Amazon S3 docroot in the following URI format: `s3://MY_ACCESS_ID:MY_SECRET_KEY@s3. amazonaws.com/my_bucket/my_path` (where each of the `MY_ACCESS_ID`, `MY_SECRET_KEY` and `my_bucket/my_path` parts must be url_encoded). S3 server side options are specified through an additional query part in the URI, as shown below. `s3://MY_ACCESS_ID:MY_SECRET_KEY@s3. amazonaws.com/my_bucket/my_path?storage-class=REDUCED_REDUNDANCY& server-side-encryption=AES256` Valid values are as follows: For storage-class: `STANDARD` (default if not specified) or `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY`. For server-side-encryption: `AES256` is the only valid value.	file path or Amazon S3 URI	blank
