# Echo Server
There is an initial version of a simple echo server located at [`nym/tools/echo-server`](https://github.com/nymtech/nym/tree/develop/tools/echo-server).
This is an initial minimal implementation of an echo server built using the [`NymProxyServer`](../rust/tcpproxy) Rust SDK abstraction that, aside from the initialisation and running of a `NymProxyServer` instance in the background, is essentially a vanilla TCP echo server written with `tokio`.
This server was initially built for the `TcpProxy` tests, but can be useful for developers to need a constant endpoint to ping when developing. In the future this will be deployed to a remote server so developers don't have to run their own.
## Build
Run `cargo build --release` from `nym/tools/echo-server`. The binary will be in the main workspace `target/release` dir.
## Run
All the server requires is a port to connect the TCP listener to. If no `<PATH_TO_ENV>` is supplied then the server defaults to using mainnet.
```sh
echo-server <PORT> <PATH_TO_ENV_FILE>
# e.g. ../../target/release/echo-server 9000 ../../envs/canary.env
```
## Logging
Every 10 seconds, the server logs:
- the total number of bytes received since startup
- the total number of bytes sent since startup
- the current number of concurrent connections it has
- the total number of concurrent connections it has
