The dashboard is the central place that shows you the current active routes handled by Traefik.

|
|
|
|
The dashboard is available at the same location as the [API](./api.md) but on the path `/dashboard/` by default.
|
|
|
|
!!! warning "The trailing slash `/` in `/dashboard/` is mandatory"
|
|
|
|
There are 2 ways to configure and access the dashboard:
|
|
|
|
- [Secure mode (Recommended)](#secure-mode)
|
|
- [Insecure mode](#insecure-mode)
|
|
|
|
!!! note ""
|
|
There is also a redirect of the path `/` to the path `/dashboard/`,
|
|
but one should not rely on that property as it is bound to change,
|
|
and it might make for confusing routing rules anyway.
|
|
|
|
## Secure Mode
|
|
|
|
This is the **recommended** method.
|
|
|
|
Start by enabling the dashboard by using the following option from [Traefik's API](./api.md)
|
|
on the [static configuration](../getting-started/configuration-overview.md#the-static-configuration):
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
|
|
api:
|
|
# Dashboard
|
|
#
|
|
# Optional
|
|
# Default: true
|
|
#
|
|
dashboard: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```toml tab="File (TOML)"
|
|
[api]
|
|
# Dashboard
|
|
#
|
|
# Optional
|
|
# Default: true
|
|
#
|
|
dashboard = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash tab="CLI"
|
|
# Dashboard
|
|
#
|
|
# Optional
|
|
# Default: true
|
|
#
|
|
--api.dashboard=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then define a routing configuration on Traefik itself,
|
|
with a router attached to the service `api@internal` in the
|
|
[dynamic configuration](../getting-started/configuration-overview.md#the-dynamic-configuration),
|
|
to allow defining:
|
|
|
|
- One or more security features through [middlewares](../middlewares/overview.md)
|
|
like authentication ([basicAuth](../middlewares/http/basicauth.md), [digestAuth](../middlewares/http/digestauth.md),
|
|
[forwardAuth](../middlewares/http/forwardauth.md)) or [allowlisting](../middlewares/http/ipallowlist.md).
|
|
|
|
- A [router rule](#dashboard-router-rule) for accessing the dashboard,
|
|
through Traefik itself (sometimes referred to as "Traefik-ception").
|
|
|
|
### Dashboard Router Rule
|
|
|
|
As underlined in the [documentation for the `api.dashboard` option](./api.md#dashboard),
|
|
the [router rule](../routing/routers/index.md#rule) defined for Traefik must match
|
|
the path prefixes `/api` and `/dashboard`.
|
|
|
|
We recommend using a "Host Based rule" as ```Host(`traefik.example.com`)``` to match everything on the host domain,
|
|
or to make sure that the defined rule captures both prefixes:
|
|
|
|
```bash tab="Host Rule"
|
|
# The dashboard can be accessed on http://traefik.example.com/dashboard/
|
|
rule = "Host(`traefik.example.com`)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash tab="Path Prefix Rule"
|
|
# The dashboard can be accessed on http://example.com/dashboard/ or http://traefik.example.com/dashboard/
|
|
rule = "PathPrefix(`/api`) || PathPrefix(`/dashboard`)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash tab="Combination of Rules"
|
|
# The dashboard can be accessed on http://traefik.example.com/dashboard/
|
|
rule = "Host(`traefik.example.com`) && (PathPrefix(`/api`) || PathPrefix(`/dashboard`))"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
??? example "Dashboard Dynamic Configuration Examples"
|
|
--8<-- "content/operations/include-dashboard-examples.md"
|
|
|
|
## Insecure Mode
|
|
|
|
This mode is not recommended because it does not allow the use of security features.
|
|
|
|
To enable the "insecure mode", use the following options from [Traefik's API](./api.md#insecure):
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
|
|
api:
|
|
dashboard: true
|
|
insecure: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```toml tab="File (TOML)"
|
|
[api]
|
|
dashboard = true
|
|
insecure = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash tab="CLI"
|
|
--api.dashboard=true --api.insecure=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now access the dashboard on the port `8080` of the Traefik instance,
|
|
at the following URL: `http://<Traefik IP>:8080/dashboard/` (trailing slash is mandatory).
