+== Configuring Pomerium with Unix domain sockets
+
+Starting from Jenkins version 2.452.1, Jenkins supports Unix domain sockets.
+This support is particularly useful for improving security and performance.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Ensure that you have Pomerium installed and configured according to the link:https://www.pomerium.com/docs[Pomerium documentation].
+
+### Configuration Steps
+
+## 1. Update Pomerium Configuration :
+
+Update your Pomerium configuration to enable Unix domain sockets by adding the following content:
+
+```yaml
+authenticate_service_url: https://authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io/oauth2/callback
+
+idp_provider: REPLACE_ME
+idp_provider_url: REPLACE_ME
+idp_client_id: REPLACE_ME
+idp_client_secret: REPLACE_ME
+
+signing_key: REPLACE_ME
+
+routes:
+  - from: https://verify.localhost.pomerium.io
+    to: http://verify:8000
+    pass_identity_headers: true
+    allow_websockets: true
+    policy:
+      - allow:
+          and:
+            - email:
+                is: [email protected]
+  - from: https://jenkins.localhost.pomerium.io
+    to: http://jenkins:8080
+    host_rewrite_header: true
+    pass_identity_headers: true
+    policy:
+      - allow:
+          and:
+            - domain:
+                is: example.com
+            - user:
+                is: username
+```
+
+## 2. Configure Jenkins :
+
+Ensure that Jenkins is configured to listen on the Unix domain socket by updating your Jenkins configuration as follows:
+
+```yaml
+networks:
+  main: {}
+services:
+  pomerium:
+    image: pomerium/pomerium:latest
+    volumes:
+      - ./config.yaml:/pomerium/config.yaml:ro
+      - /var/run/jenkins.sock:/var/run/jenkins.sock
+    ports:
+      - 443:443
+    networks:
+      main:
+        aliases:
+          - authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io
+
+  verify:
+    networks:
+      main: {}
+    image: pomerium/verify:latest
+    expose:
+      - 8000
+
+  jenkins:
+    networks:
+      main: {}
+    image: jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk11
+    privileged: true
+    user: root
+    environment:
+      JAVA_OPTS: "-Djenkins.httpListenAddress=unix:/var/run/jenkins/jenkins.socket"
+      JENKINS_UNIX_DOMAIN_PATH: "/var/run/jenkins/jenkins.socket"
+    volumes:
+      - ./home/jenkins_compose/jenkins_configuration:/var/jenkins_home
+      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
+      - /var/run/jenkins:/var/run/jenkins
+```
+
+## 3. Restart Services :
+
+Restart both Jenkins and Pomerium to apply the new configuration.
+
+### Verification
+
+After restarting the services, verify that Jenkins is accessible through the Unix domain socket by navigating to your Jenkins URL (e.g., `https://jenkins.example.com`).
