+### Environment Variables
+
+A small selection of the possible environment variables are defined in the Dockerfile to be passed through the docker engine (listed below). For a list of environment variables supported by RabbitMQ itself, see: https://www.rabbitmq.com/configure.html

+For SSL configuration without the management plugin:
+
+```bash
+RABBITMQ_SSL_CACERTFILE
+RABBITMQ_SSL_CERTFILE
+RABBITMQ_SSL_DEPTH
+RABBITMQ_SSL_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
+RABBITMQ_SSL_KEYFILE
+RABBITMQ_SSL_VERIFY
+```
+
+For SSL configuration using the management plugin:
+
+```bash
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_CACERTFILE
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_CERTFILE
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_DEPTH
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_FAIL_IF_NO_PEER_CERT
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_KEYFILE
+RABBITMQ_MANAGEMENT_SSL_VERIFY

 It is therefore important to take that startup delay into consideration when configuring health checks, automated clustering etc.
 
+### Enabling Plugins
+
+Creating a Dockerfile will have them enabled at runtime. To see the full list of plugins present on the image `rabbitmq-plugins list`
+
+```Dockerfile
+FROM rabbitmq:3.7-management
+RUN rabbitmq-plugins enable --offline rabbitmq_mqtt rabbitmq_federation_management rabbitmq_stomp
+```
+
+You can also mount a file at `/etc/rabbitmq/enabled_plugins` with contents as an erlang list of atoms ending with a period.
+
+Example `enabled_plugins`
+
+```bash
+[rabbitmq_federation_management,rabbitmq_management,rabbitmq_mqtt,rabbitmq_stomp].
+```
+
 ### Additional Configuration
 
 If additional configuration is required, it is recommended to use the `RABBITMQ_SERVER_ADDITIONAL_ERL_ARGS` environment variable, whose syntax is described [in section 7.8 ("Configuring an Application") of the Erlang OTP Design Principles User's Guide](http://erlang.org/doc/design_principles/applications.html#id81887) (the appropriate value for `-ApplName` is `-rabbit`).
