How to redirect to the dashboard from a URL? - traefik

Question

I currently access the V2 dashboard through http://traefik.my.server:8080/dashboard/ (Traefik runs in a docker container and 8080 is exposed to the host).
I would like to change that so that the dashboard is available at http://traefik.my.server/dashboard
I tried to add the following labels to configure this behavior but I get a 404 when accessing http://traefik.my.server/dashboard
- traefik.http.routers.dashboard.rule=Host(`traefik.my.server:`) && Path(`/dashboard`)
- traefik.http.services.dashboard.loadbalancer.server.port=8080
- traefik.http.routers.dashboard.entryPoints=http
(the http entrypoint is port 80)
What is the correct way to set up such redirectio

FYI it's not redirection but a routing.

Following up on #Idez help at https://community.containo.us/t/how-to-redirect-to-the-dashboard-from-a-url/4082, a working configuration is
The docker-compose file:
services:
traefik:
container_name: traefik
image: traefik
ports:
- 80:80
- 443:443
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
- /etc/docker/container-data/traefik:/etc/traefik
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
labels:
- traefik.http.routers.api.rule=Host(`traefik.mydomain.org`)
- traefik.http.routers.api.service=api#internal
- traefik.http.routers.api.middlewares=lan
- traefik.http.middlewares.lan.ipwhitelist.sourcerange=192.168.10.0/24, 192.168.20.0/24
- traefik.enable=true
