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.

Important Notes#

The following section has special notes regarding utilizing Authelia with Kubernetes.

External Traffic Policy#

Authelia (and all of your other applications) may receive an invalid remote IP if the service handling traffic to the Kubernetes Ingress of your choice doesn’t have the externalTrafficPolicy setting configured to local as per the Kubernetes preserving the client source ip documentation.

Enable Service Links#

Authelia’s configuration management system conflicts with the enableServiceLinks option when it’s set to true which is the default. This should be changed to false. See the PodSpec v1 core documentation for more details.

Pod Example#

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: authelia
spec:
  enableServiceLinks: false
...

Frequently Asked Questions#

RAM usage#

If using file-based authentication, the argon2id provider will by default use 1GB of RAM for password generation. This means you should allow for at least this amount in your deployment/daemonset spec and have this much available on your node, alternatively you can tweak the providers settings. Otherwise, your Authelia may OOM during login. See here for more info.
