You can control the running Transmission daemon using transmission-remote.

WARNING: The Transmission daemon does not whitelist the IP used to connect to the RPC client, so you should not expose port 9091 to the internet. It is recommended that you expose it only to localhost, and, if required, use SSH port forwarding or another method to access the daemon.
