## What happened? I receive the error code ERR\_TOO\_MANY\_REDIRECTS in chrome when I try to access the whoami service in traefik that utilizes forwardAuth in pomerium using the forwardAuth middleware in traefik. ![Screenshot 2022-12-16 at 16.59.26](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex031/uploads/pomerium/original/1X/2498cba59d75eb0b5f4febdfa7c403c5cdc1e698.png) ## What did you expect to happen?

Forward Auth is not recommended as it’s very complicated to debug and requires intimate understanding of the [request flow](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/reference/forward-auth) between Pomerium and 3rd party load balancer. Pomerium is built on Envoy that is a first class load balancer / reverse proxy. Is there a specific feature you use in Traefik that Pomerium is missing? ---

> [@denis](#): > > Is there a specific feature you use in Traefik that Pomerium is missing? Thanks for clarifying. I think it would make sense to provide a full example that works. In this link the pomerium configuration is missing or document that it is a very advanced feature not intended to be used by most use cases ([Forward Auth (Deprecated) | Pomerium](https://www.pomerium.com/docs/reference/forward-auth)). Regarding some missing features from traefik. I find the configuration through docker labels very intuitive ([Traefik Docker Documentation - Traefik](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/providers/docker/)) and the more basic look of 403, 404 errors and some way to specify custom error pages like the error middleware in traefik ([Traefik Errors Documentation - Traefik](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/errorpages/)) ---
