Pangolin requires a [https://docs.pangolin.net/manage/sites/credentials#secret server secret], used for handshake authentication. Additionally, you may provide the setup token as shown below, which saves the trouble of finding it in logs with <code> journalctl -eu pangolin | grep token</code>. Naturally, don't use these secrets.
