Docker Tab ​

The Docker tab lists the routes Traefik discovered through its Docker provider.

What it shows ​

  • One card per route: status, name, rule, protocol, TLS state, service, entry points, middlewares
  • Summary strip: route counts per protocol, the provider's middleware count, any route not serving, and a read-only marker
  • Middlewares from the Docker provider, listed under the routes, when the provider has at least one route
  • Search, protocol filter, refresh

Click a card for its detail panel, which adds the container address and the route's traefik.* labels.

Routes are read-only - edit them via your container's Docker labels.

Enabling the tab ​

This tab switches itself on the first time Traefik reports routers from this provider, and the setup wizard pre-selects it when the provider is already running. Turn it off and it stays off.

Requirements ​

Traefik must be configured with the Docker provider and have access to the Docker socket:

yaml
providers:
  docker:
    exposedByDefault: false

With exposedByDefault: false, only containers labelled traefik.enable=true appear.

No mounts into traefik-manager needed - data comes live from the Traefik API.
