Not able to get ssl and dashboard accessible | DNS/Domain managed by Digital Ocean and VPS at different provider

Traefik Traefik v2 (latest)
,
1

I have a domain that is managed by digital ocean. I am using that subdomain's A record pointing to a VPS which has service at different provider. I have gotten the page to load without ssl/https.

Current issues:
Dashboard not accessible outside
SSL not generating

My goals with traefik are:

  1. have the subdomain use ssl
  2. have dashboard be accessible with username and password with ssl
  3. auto redirect to https

I tried to use this from documentation but had no success.
