The simplest and fastest way to install Traefik Reverse Proxy is to use the Portainer template prepared by our team. This method minimizes manual configuration and allows you to deploy a stable, ready-to-use system in just a few minutes.
Requirements:
VPS with Portainer installed using the Unihost script
After connecting to Portainer, go to the Application section, select Traefik Reverse Proxy, and fill in the required fields.
Fill in all the required fields. Please note: for security, the password must be strong — use uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters to minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
After that, a new Traefik stack will appear in the Stacks section. Inside this stack, the containers required for its operation will be deployed.
To connect to Traefik, open your browser and enter the following in the address bar:
http://<IP_server>:8080
Replace <server_IP> with your local server IP (for example, http://192.168.0.10:8080) and press Enter — the Traefik Dashboard will open.
Conclusion
Using the ready-made Portainer template significantly reduces setup time and helps avoid potential errors. As a result, you get a fully functional Traefik instance with a web interface “out of the box,” requiring minimal effort for installation and connection via NPM.
