I prescribe in routs such code for 'middleware' => ['web'] , does not work. Are there any other options to deny access to the page for guests?

 Route::get('/page', function () { return redirect('404'); });

    Use auth middleware to close access for guests, if you want to close access for authorized users, use guest middleware , for example like this:

     Route::get('/', ['middleware' => ['auth'], function () { // }]);

      First option:

       Route::get('profile', function () { })->middleware('auth');

      The second option in the controller constructor:

       public function __construct() { $this->middleware('auth'); }
