# Control panel reference

What are the tabs in the Vaelix control panel for? Open your server and you will see a set of tabs on the left. Which ones appear depends on your game, but these are the ones the guides refer to.

| Tab | What it is for | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| **Network** | Lists every port allocated to your server, including the game, Query, and RCON ports. Use it as the reference when a game asks for a port. | [Ports, Query, and RCON](/basic-help/networking-ports-and-rcon) |
| **Startup** | Startup parameters such as ports, the RCON password, the Java version, and the Rust framework. | [Rust networking setup](/rust/rust-networking-setup) |
| **Settings** | Server details, including the SFTP Information card with your connection string and username. | [Connecting via sFTP](/basic-help/connecting-via-sftp) |
| **File Manager** | Browse, edit, upload, and extract files in your browser. | [Migrating your world](/basic-help/migrating-your-world-to-vaelix) |
| **Subdomains** | Create a free `name.vaelix.cloud` address for your server. | [Custom domains and SRV records](/basic-help/custom-domains-and-srv-records) |
| **Minecraft Versions** | Change the Minecraft server version (Minecraft servers). | [Migrating your world](/basic-help/migrating-your-world-to-vaelix) |
| **Game Players** | Player management. It depends on a working RCON connection. | [Ports, Query, and RCON](/basic-help/networking-ports-and-rcon) |
| **Plugins** | Install and update Oxide plugins (Rust, after switching the framework to Oxide). | [uMod plugins on Rust](/rust/umod-plugins-rust) |
| **Palworld Settings** | Visual editor for Palworld server options, including the REST API. | [Palworld REST API](/palworld/palworld-rest-api-setup) |

Your panel also includes a scheduler, which can restart the server or run other tasks on a timer.

> **Tip:** If a tab from this table is missing, it usually means it does not apply to your game, or a prerequisite (like switching to the Oxide framework on Rust) has not been done yet.
