Just tested it out myself. Basic Auth is so easy to set up that I am not really willing to cover it in this guide.
First create the user(s) in HAProxy. Then in the relevant backends activate basic auth and select the user(s).

Thanks for this tutorial. It saved my ass. I learned a lot about OPNsense and HAProxy. At last I enabled basic auth. on one of my backends. Anything was fine before, but after activating it I can't no longer login into the service web frontend itself. If I access the frontend browser asked for the basic auth, after that I see the login screen of the service, but after put in the service credentials the FE refresh and shows the login screen again.
If I disable basic auth, the service FE works as expected.

What do I miss? Maybe someone out there has a hint...

I have a very serious problem with this haproxy config since I updated to 22.1.3. Suddenly haproxy didn't start anymore. On further investigation trying to start haproxy through the commandline showed that suddenly the ipadresses for the frontend cannot be bound anymore:

This behaviour seems to be gone since 22.1.4_1. No guarantee.
