Phoenix Properties

[Sumit Nigam]

Hello,
I am planning on supplying all guidepost properties through my 
DriverManager.getConnection method by passing a java.util.Properties of 
key=value pairs.
In the documentation at https://phoenix.apache.org/tuning.html, it mentions 
guidepost parameters to be server-side parameters. Does that mean I cannot 
influence them through DriverManager.getConnection method by passing those 
inside Properties object to this method?
Thanks.
