DataTables change default sort order

Question

I use datatables with option serverSide: true. I see it in the ajax request body that it sends the default ordering option, which is the first column and ASC always.

order[0][column]=0&order[0][dir]=asc

Is there a way to configure this and change default order setting?

In you DataTable Configuration inside javascript you can specify that with help of,

 "order": [[1, "asc"]],
