The basic configuration format

The basic NGINX configuration file is set up in a number of sections. Each section is delineated as shown:

<section> {

    <directive> <parameters>;

}

It is important to note that each directive line ends with a semicolon (;). This marks the end of line. The curly braces ({}) actually denote a new configuration context, but we will read these as sections for the most part.
