How do I configure this property with Spring Boot and an embedded Tomcat?

Question

Do I configure properties like the connectionTimeout in the application.properties file or is the somewhere else to do it? I can\'t figure this out from Google.

I prefer set of system properties before the server start:

/**
 * Start SpringBoot server
 */
@SpringBootApplication(scanBasePackages= {"com.your.conf.package"})
//@ComponentScan(basePackages = "com.your.conf.package")
public class Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        System.setProperty("server.port","8132"));
        System.setProperty("server.tomcat.max-threads","200");
        System.setProperty("server.connection-timeout","60000");
        ApplicationContext ctx = SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }
}
