#### S3 File Transfer
When enabled, the server stores channel files in an S3 compatible bucket and hands clients presigned URLs instead of serving the transfer itself.
| Parameter | Environment Variable | Description |
|----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `--s3ft-enabled` | `TSSERVER_S3FT_ENABLED` | Enables S3 file transfer (Default: off). |
| `--s3ft-domain <host>` | `TSSERVER_S3FT_DOMAIN` | Endpoint domain of the S3 service, for example an AWS or MinIO host. |
| `--s3ft-bucket <name>` | `TSSERVER_S3FT_BUCKET` | Bucket the server stores files in. |

| `--s3ft-access-key <key>` | `TSSERVER_S3FT_ACCESS_KEY` | Access key used to authenticate against the S3 service. |

| `--s3ft-account-id <id>` | `TSSERVER_S3FT_ACCOUNT_ID` | Optional account id, required by some providers. |
| `--s3ft-presigned-url-expiration <sec>`| `TSSERVER_S3FT_PRESIGNED_URL_EXPIRATION` | Lifetime of a presigned URL in seconds (Default: 300). |

#### Metrics
The server can expose its monitoring data as Prometheus metrics, without a ServerQuery admin
key. The endpoint is disabled by default, and when enabled it is unauthenticated.
| Parameter | Environment Variable | Description |
|----------------------------|-----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `--metrics-enable` | `TSSERVER_METRICS_ENABLED` | Enables the Prometheus metrics endpoint, scraped at `GET /metrics`. |

| `--metrics-voice` | `TSSERVER_METRICS_VOICE` | Adds per-packet voice diagnostics. This instruments the hot path, so benchmark before enabling under load. |

#### Performance Tuning
The defaults suit most servers. Change these only when you have measured a reason to.
| Parameter | Environment Variable | Description |
|----------------------------------|----------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `--threads-voice-udp <n>` | `TSSERVER_VOICE_UDP_THREADS` | Threads for UDP socket send/receive, shared by all packet types (Default: 16). |

| `--socket-read-depth <n>` | `TSSERVER_SOCKET_READ_DEPTH` | Concurrent receives per UDP socket, only worthwhile at high packet rates (Default: 4). |
| `--socket-receive-buffer <bytes>`| `TSSERVER_SOCKET_RECEIVE_BUFFER` | UDP receive buffer, clamped by the kernel to `net.core.rmem_max` (Default: 4194304). |
| `--socket-send-buffer <bytes>` | `TSSERVER_SOCKET_SEND_BUFFER` | UDP send buffer, clamped by the kernel to `net.core.wmem_max` (Default: 4194304). |
