 Please read the [official documentation](https://redis.io/topics/sentinel) for more information.
 
+Once Redis servers and Sentinels are deployed, the `REDIS-URL` can be specified as `[redis[s]://][USER:PASSWORD@]MASTERNAME,SENTINEL_ADDRS:SENTINEL_PORT[/DB]`, for example,
+
+```
+$ ./juicefs mount rediss://:sentinelPass@masterName,1.2.3.4,1.2.5.6:5000/2
+```
+**Note** The default port for Sentinel is 26379, but the above URL use 6379 (default port for Redis server) as the default, so the port for Sentinel is not optional.
+
+**Note** When the password is provided in the URL, it will also be used to connect Redis server. If they have different passwords, the passwords should be specified by enviroment viarables (`SENTINEL_PASSWORD` and `REDIS_PASSWORD`) separately.

 Redis provides a different range of [persistence](https://redis.io/topics/persistence) options:
