+## Trust additional proxy IPs
+
+By default, Express is configured to trust forwarded proxy headers from loopback, link-local, and private IP ranges. To also trust additional proxy IPs or subnets, set `ADDITIONAL_TRUSTED_PROXIES` to a single value or a comma-separated list.
+
+    docker run -e ADDITIONAL_TRUSTED_PROXIES="2001:db8::/32,203.0.113.10" -p 8080:8080 -p 8443:8443 --rm -t mendhak/http-https-echo:40

 ## Decode JWT header
 
 If you specify the header that contains the JWT, the echo output will contain the decoded JWT.  Use the `JWT_HEADER` environment variable for this.
