===== Configuring Stop
You can configure a port number for jetty to listen on for a stop command, so you are able to stop it from a different terminal.
You can configure a port number for Jetty to listen on for a stop command, so you are able to stop it from a different terminal.
This requires the use of a "secret" key, to prevent malicious or accidental termination.
Use the `--stop-port` and `--stop-key` (or `-DSTOP.PORT=` and `-DSTOP.KEY=`, respectively) parameters as arguments to the `jetty-runner`:

If the time specified elapses, without a confirmation of server stop, then the `--stop` command exits with a non-zero return code.
You can configure a port number for Jetty to listen on for a stop command, so you are able to stop it from a different terminal.
This requires the use of a "secret" key, to prevent malicious or accidental termination.
Use the `STOP.PORT` and `STOP.KEY` (or `-DSTOP.PORT=` and `-DSTOP.KEY=`, respectively, which will set these as system parameters) parameters as arguments to the `start.jar`:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
....
> java -jar ${JETTY_HOME}/start.jar STOP.PORT=1234 STOP.KEY=secretpassword
....
Then, to stop Jetty from a different terminal, you need to supply this port and key information.
You can either use a copy of the Jetty distribution, the link:#jetty-maven-plugin[jetty-maven-plugin], the link:#jetty-ant[jetty-ant plugin], or a custom class to accomplish this.
Here's how to use the Jetty distribution, leveraging `start.jar`, to perform a stop:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
....
> java -jar start.jar STOP.PORT=8181 STOP.KEY=abc123 --stop
....

[NOTE]
To perform a graceful shutdown of Jetty, the `stats` link:#startup-modules[module] *must* be enabled.
