+
+``request_timeout`` :
+ Global timeout of the requests made to others engines in seconds. A bigger
+ timeout will allow to wait for answers from slow engines, but in consequence
+ will slow SearXNG reactivity (the result page may take the time specified in the
+ timeout to load). Can be override by ``timeout`` in the :ref:`settings engine`.
+
+``useragent_suffix`` :
+ Suffix to the user-agent SearXNG uses to send requests to others engines. If an
+ engine wish to block you, a contact info here may be useful to avoid that.
+
+.. _Pool limit configuration: https://www.python-httpx.org/advanced/#pool-limit-configuration
+
+``pool_maxsize``:
+ Number of allowable keep-alive connections, or ``null`` to always allow. The
+ default is 10. See ``max_keepalive_connections`` `Pool limit configuration`_.
+
+``pool_connections`` :
+ Maximum number of allowable connections, or ``null`` # for no limits. The
+ default is 100. See ``max_connections`` `Pool limit configuration`_.
+
+``keepalive_expiry`` :
+ Number of seconds to keep a connection in the pool. By default 5.0 seconds.
+ See ``keepalive_expiry`` `Pool limit configuration`_.
+
+.. _httpx proxies: https://www.python-httpx.org/advanced/#http-proxying
+
+``proxies`` :
+ Define one or more proxies you wish to use, see `httpx proxies`_.
+ If there are more than one proxy for one protocol (http, https),
+ requests to the engines are distributed in a round-robin fashion.
+
+``source_ips`` :
+ If you use multiple network interfaces, define from which IP the requests must
+ be made. Example:
+
+ * ``0.0.0.0`` any local IPv4 address.
+ * ``::`` any local IPv6 address.
+ * ``192.168.0.1``
+ * ``[ 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2 ]`` these two specific IP addresses
+ * ``fe80::60a2:1691:e5a2:ee1f``
+ * ``fe80::60a2:1691:e5a2:ee1f/126`` all IP addresses in this network.
+ * ``[ 192.168.0.1, fe80::/126 ]``
+
+``retries`` :
+ Number of retry in case of an HTTP error. On each retry, SearXNG uses an
+ different proxy and source ip.
+
+``enable_http2`` :
+ Enable by default. Set to ``false`` to disable HTTP/2.
+
+.. _httpx verification defaults: https://www.python-httpx.org/advanced/#changing-the-verification-defaults
+.. _httpx ssl configuration: https://www.python-httpx.org/compatibility/#ssl-configuration
+
+``verify``: : ``$SSL_CERT_FILE``, ``$SSL_CERT_DIR``
+ Allow to specify a path to certificate.
+ see `httpx verification defaults`_.
+
+ In addition to ``verify``, SearXNG supports the ``$SSL_CERT_FILE`` (for a file) and
+ ``$SSL_CERT_DIR`` (for a directory) OpenSSL variables.
+ see `httpx ssl configuration`_.
+
+``max_redirects`` :
+ 30 by default. Maximum redirect before it is an error.
+
+``using_tor_proxy`` :
+ Using tor proxy (``true``) or not (``false``) for all engines. The default is
+ ``false`` and can be overwritten in the :ref:`settings engine`
+
+
