+= Introduction =
+
+Sometimes you might run clients without encryption on the same machine or LAN as Prosody - and you want Prosody to treat them as secure (e.g. allowing plaintext authentication) even though they are not encrypted.
+
+This module allows you to tell Prosody which of the current server's interfaces (IP addresses) that you consider to be on secure networks.
+
+
+= Configuration =
+
+Configuration is simple, just load the module like any other by adding it to your modules_enabled list:
+
+{{{
+    modules_enabled = {
+        ...
+        "secure_interfaces";
+        ...
+    }
+}}}
+
+Then set the list of secure interfaces (just make sure it is set in the global section of your config file, and *not* under a VirtualHost or Component):
+
+{{{
+    secure_interfaces = { "127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.1.54" }
+}}}
