Enable Dashboard

By default, the Traefik dashboard is enabled in secure mode, but not configured to be accessible from the internet.

To enable access from the internet, you need to add a dynamic configuration and secure it with a username and password.

Secure mode (with Dynamic Configuration)

You can enable Traefik’s dashboard by adding the following dynamic configuration:

http:
  routers:
    dashboard:
      rule: Host(`<DOMAIN_FOR_TRAEFIK>`) && (PathPrefix(`/dashboard`) || PathPrefix(`/api`))
      service: api@internal
      tls:
        certResolver: letsencrypt
      middlewares:
        - auth
  middlewares:
    auth:
      basicAuth:
        users:
          - "<GENERATED_USERNAME>:<GENERATED_PASSWORD>"

Replace <DOMAIN_FOR_TRAEFIK>, <GENERATED_USERNAME>, and <GENERATED_PASSWORD> with your own values.

You can reach the dashboard by visiting http://<DOMAIN_FOR_TRAEFIK>/dashboard/#/.

How to generate user/password?

You can generate one with the htpasswd command:

Terminal window
htpasswd -nbB test test

Example output:

Terminal window
test:$apr1$H6uskkkW$IgXLP6ewTrSuBkTrqE8wj/

If you want to enable the dashboard in insecure mode (without a password), all you need to do is go to the proxy configurations view and change the insecure setting to true, then restart the proxy..
