+# By default Redis Sentinel listens for connections from all the network
+# interfaces available on the server. It is possible to listen to just one or
+# multiple interfaces using the "bind" configuration directive, followed by one
+# or more IP addresses.
+#
+# Examples:
+#
+# bind 192.168.1.100 10.0.0.1
+# bind 127.0.0.1
+
+# Specify the log file name. Also the empty string can be used to force
+# Sentinel to log on the standard output. Note that if you use standard
+# output for logging but daemonize, logs will be sent to /dev/null
