[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](#see-also) section.*
## 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](https://github.com/haproxytech/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](https://github.com/TimWolla/haproxy-auth-request/blob/master/auth-request.lua)
## 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
* 172.16.0.0/16
* 192.168.0.0/16
* fc00::/7
## Configuration
Below you will find commented examples of the following configuration:
* Authelia Portal
* Protected Endpoint (Nextcloud)
* Protected Endpoint with `Authorization` header for basic authentication (Heimdall)
With this configuration you can protect your virtual hosts with Authelia, by following the steps below:
1. Add host(s) to the `protected-frontends` or `protected-frontends-basic` ACLs to support protection with Authelia.
You can separate each subdomain with a `|` in the regex, for example:
```text
acl protected-frontends hdr(host) -m reg -i ^(?i)(jenkins|nextcloud|phpmyadmin)\.example\.com
acl protected-frontends-basic hdr(host) -m reg -i ^(?i)(heimdall)\.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:
```text
acl host-jenkins hdr(host) -i jenkins.example.com
acl host-nextcloud hdr(host) -i nextcloud.example.com
acl host-phpmyadmin hdr(host) -i phpmyadmin.example.com
acl host-heimdall hdr(host) -i heimdall.example.com
```
3. Add backend route for your service(s), for example:
```text
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:
```text
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
```
### Secure Authelia with TLS
There is a [known limitation](https://github.com/TimWolla/haproxy-auth-request/issues/12) with haproxy-auth-request with
regard to TLS-enabled backends. If you want to run Authelia TLS enabled the recommended workaround utilises [HAProxy]
itself to proxy the requests. This comes at a cost of two additional TCP connections, but allows the full [HAProxy]
configuration flexibility with regard to TLS verification as well as header rewriting. An example of this configuration
is also be provided below.
