The default settings of your Varnish instance suit most Varnish users, but we advise you to have a look and update the configuration according to your needs.
Our documentation site has a reference section with available runtime options. This will help you to properly configure the Varnish process.
To look at system parameters, run this command:
sudo systemctl cat varnish.service
To change runtime options, input the following command on your Varnish instance:
sudo systemctl edit varnish.service
Edit, as needed, and save the file. Now restart Varnish by running the following command:
sudo systemctl restart varnish.service
