How to enable federation within NPM for lemmy?

[minnixtx]

I followed this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lQFZvCCe7U to get lemmy up and running with NPM and can access the page and everything works. He does not go over enabling federation though using NPM so I am unable to reach other lemmy servers with my instance. lemmy provides an example nginx conf here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/templates/nginx.conf and in the troubleshooting section they discuss federation here https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/troubleshooting.html

What would I add to NPM to get federation working and where would I add it?

Thanks in advance

Turns out you don't have to do anything really. I just had to add the federation block to my lemmy config since it's not there by default.
