% podman-varlink "1"
## NAME
podman\-varlink - Runs the varlink backend interface
## SYNOPSIS
**podman varlink** [*options*] *uri*
## DESCRIPTION
Starts the varlink service listening on *uri* that allows varlink clients to interact with podman. This should generally be done
with systemd. See _Configuration_ below.
## GLOBAL OPTIONS
**--help, -h**
Print usage statement
## OPTIONS
**--timeout, -t**
The time until the varlink session expires in _milliseconds_. The default is 1
second. A value of `0` means no timeout and the session will not expire.
## EXAMPLES
Run the podman varlink service manually and accept the default timeout.
```
$ podman varlink unix:/run/podman/io.podman
```
Run the podman varlink service manually with a 5 second timeout.
```
$ podman varlink --timeout 5000 unix:/run/podman/io.podman
```
## CONFIGURATION
Users of the podman varlink service should enable the _io.podman.socket_ and _io.podman.service_.
This is the preferred method for running the varlink service.
You can do this via systemctl.
```
$ systemctl enable --now io.podman.socket
```
