The authentication layer is optional. If used, the config file needs the variables `https_port`, `authentication_domain_name`, `authelia_config_path`, `authelia_secrets_env_path`, `authelia_db_postgres_password`. Authelia is accessed automatically by Traefik to check permissions everytime someones wants to access a page.
