HAProxy is a reverse proxy supported by Authelia.

Important: When using these guides, it's important to recognize that we cannot provide a guide for every possible method of deploying a proxy. These guides show a suggested setup only, and you need to understand the proxy configuration and customize it to your needs. To-that-end, we include links to the official proxy documentation throughout this documentation and in the See Also section.

Get started

It's strongly recommended that users setting up Authelia for the first time take a look at our Get started guide. This takes you through various steps which are essential to bootstrapping Authelia.

Requirements

You need the following to run Authelia with HAProxy:

  • HAProxy 1.8.4+ (2.2.0+ recommended) -USE_LUA=1 set at compile time
    • haproxy-lua-http must be available within the Lua path
      • A json library within the Lua path (dependency of haproxy-lua-http, usually found as OS package lua-json)
      • With HAProxy 2.1.3+ you can use the lua-prepend-path configuration option to specify the search path
    • haproxy-auth-request

Trusted Proxies

Important: You should read the Forwarded Headers section and this section as part of any proxy configuration. Especially if you have never read it before.

Important: The included example is NOT meant for production use. It's used expressly as an example to showcase how you can configure multiple IP ranges. You should customize this example to fit your specific architecture and needs. You should only include the specific IP address ranges of the trusted proxies within your architecture and should not trust entire subnets unless that subnet only has trusted proxies and no other services.

With HAProxy the most convenient method to configure trusted proxies is to create a src ACL from the contents of a file. The example utilizes this method and trusted proxies can then easily be added or removed from the ACL file.

HAProxy implicitly trusts all external proxies by default so it's important you configure this for a trusted environment.

HAProxy by default does trust all other proxies. This means it's essential that you configure this correctly.

In the example we have a trusted_proxies.src.acl file which is used by one http-request del-header X-Forwarded-For line in the main configuration which shows an example of not trusting any proxies or alternatively an example on adding the following networks to the trusted proxy list in HAProxy:

  • 10.0.0.0/8
  • 172.16.0.0/12
  • 192.168.0.0/16
  • fc00::/7

Assumptions and Adaptation

This guide makes a few assumptions. These assumptions may require adaptation in more advanced and complex scenarios. We can not reasonably have examples for every advanced configuration option that exists. Some of these values can automatically be replaced with documentation variables.

{{< sitevar-preferences >}}

The following are the assumptions we make:

  • Deployment Scenario:
    • Single Host
    • Authelia is deployed as a Container with the container name {{< sitevar name="host" nojs="authelia" >}} on port {{< sitevar name="port" nojs="9091" >}}
    • Proxy is deployed as a Container on a network shared with Authelia
  • The above assumption means that Authelia should be accessible to the proxy on {{< sitevar name="tls" nojs="http" >}}://{{< sitevar name="host" nojs="authelia" >}}:{{< sitevar name="port" nojs="9091" >}} and as such:
    • You will have to adapt all instances of the above URL to be https:// if Authelia configuration has a TLS key and certificate defined
    • You will have to adapt all instances of {{< sitevar name="host" nojs="authelia" >}} in the URL if:
      • you're using a different container name
      • you deployed the proxy to a different location
    • You will have to adapt all instances of {{< sitevar name="port" nojs="9091" >}} in the URL if:
      • you have adjusted the default port in the configuration
    • You will have to adapt the entire URL if:
      • Authelia is on a different host to the proxy
    • All services are part of the {{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}} domain:
      • This domain and the subdomains will have to be adapted in all examples to match your specific domains unless you're just testing or you want to use that specific domain

Implementation

HAProxy utilizes the ForwardAuth Authz implementation. The associated Metadata should be considered required.

The examples below assume you are using the default Authz Endpoints Configuration or one similar to the following minimal configuration:

server:
  endpoints:
    authz:
      forward-auth:
        implementation: 'ForwardAuth'

The examples below also assume you are using the modern Session Configuration which includes the domain, authelia_url, and default_redirection_url as a subkey of the session.cookies key as a list item. Below is an example of the modern configuration as well as the legacy configuration for context.

{{< sessionTabs "Generate Random Password" >}} {{< sessionTab "Modern" >}}

session:
  cookies:
    - domain: '{{</* sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" */>}}'
      authelia_url: 'https://{{</* sitevar name="subdomain-authelia" nojs="auth" */>}}.{{</* sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" */>}}'
      default_redirection_url: 'https://www.{{</* sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" */>}}'

{{< /sessionTab >}} {{< sessionTab "Legacy" >}}

default_redirection_url: 'https://www.{{</* sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" */>}}'
session:
  domain: '{{</* sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" */>}}'

{{< /sessionTab >}} {{< /sessionTabs >}}

Configuration

Below you will find commented examples of the following configuration:

  • Authelia Portal
  • Protected Endpoints (Nextcloud)

With this configuration you can protect your virtual hosts with Authelia, by following the steps below:

  1. Add host(s) to the protected-frontends ACLs to support protection with Authelia. You can separate each subdomain with a | in the regex, for example:

    acl protected-frontends hdr(host) -m reg -i ^(?i)(jenkins|nextcloud|phpmyadmin)\.example\.com

  2. Add host ACL(s) in the form of host-service, this will be utilised to route to the correct backend upon successful authentication, for example:

    acl host-jenkins hdr(host) -i jenkins.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}
acl host-nextcloud hdr(host) -i nextcloud.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}
acl host-phpmyadmin hdr(host) -i phpmyadmin.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}
acl host-heimdall hdr(host) -i heimdall.{{< sitevar name="domain" nojs="example.com" >}}

  3. Add backend route for your service(s), for example:

    use_backend be_jenkins if host-jenkins
use_backend be_nextcloud if host-nextcloud
use_backend be_phpmyadmin if host-phpmyadmin
use_backend be_heimdall if host-heimdall

  4. Add backend definitions for your service(s), for example:

    backend be_jenkins
    server jenkins jenkins:8080
backend be_nextcloud
    server nextcloud nextcloud:443 ssl verify none
backend be_phpmyadmin
    server phpmyadmin phpmyadmin:80
backend be_heimdall
    server heimdall heimdall:443 ssl verify none
