 These settings are for the [Gunicorn HTTP server](http://gunicorn.org/), which is used to serve the [HTTP client-server API](../drivers-clients/http-client-server-api.html).
 
 `server.bind` is where to bind the Gunicorn HTTP server socket. It's a string. It can be any valid value for [Gunicorn's bind setting](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/settings.html#bind). If you want to allow IPv4 connections from anyone, on port 9984, use '0.0.0.0:9984'. In a production setting, we recommend you use Gunicorn behind a reverse proxy server. If Gunicorn and the reverse proxy are running on the same machine, then use 'localhost:PORT' where PORT is _not_ 9984 (because the reverse proxy needs to listen on port 9984). Maybe use PORT=9983 in that case because we know 9983 isn't used. If Gunicorn and the reverse proxy are running on different machines, then use 'A.B.C.D:9984' where A.B.C.D is the IP address of the reverse proxy. There's [more information about deploying behind a reverse proxy in the Gunicorn documentation](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/deploy.html). (They call it a proxy.)
 
+`server.loglevel` sets the log level of Gunicorn's Error log outputs. See
+[Gunicorn's documentation](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/latest/settings.html#loglevel)
+for more information.
+
 `server.workers` is [the number of worker processes](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/settings.html#workers) for handling requests. If `None` (the default), the value will be (cpu_count * 2 + 1). `server.threads` is [the number of threads-per-worker](http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/settings.html#threads) for handling requests. If `None` (the default), the value will be (cpu_count * 2 + 1). The HTTP server will be able to handle `server.workers` * `server.threads` requests simultaneously.
