Trouble with stream directive

Server NGINX
1

I’m trying to test the TCP load balancing function in 1.9.2, but am
having
some problems getting a very basic configuration working. TIA

ubuntu@dev:~$ cat /etc/nginx/stream.d/test.conf
stream {

server {
    listen     12345;
    proxy_pass mybackend:12345;
}

}
ubuntu@dev:~$ sudo nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] “stream” directive is not allowed here in
/etc/nginx/stream.d/test.conf:1
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

Please watch the top-level config (nginx.conf) where this file is
included.
Most probably it already has the “stream” directive surrounding the
include.

   proxy_pass mybackend:12345;

I have the same problem maybe you can help me? I try to setup it as a proxy
That is nginx.conf

#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;

#error_log logs/error.log;
#error_log logs/error.log notice;
#error_log logs/error.log info;

#pid logs/nginx.pid;

events {
worker_connections 1024;

}

}

and the is the stream-proxy.conf (i have remove my IP)

I got this error:nginx: [emerg] “stream” directive is not allowed here in C:\nginx/conf/stream-proxy.conf:2
stream {
upstream backend{
server ip:port

    }
    server {
		listen 30120;
       
		proxy_pass backend;
	}
	server {
		listen 30120 udp reuseport;
        

		proxy_pass backend;
	}
}

thank
