I created a custom guard (admin) in my application, and everything looks good following this tutorial online (https://pusher.com/tutorials/multiple-authentication-guards-laravel). The only problem is when i try to access a view that is protected by the admin guard, instead of giving me a exception NotAuthenticate, is giving me a "InvalidArgumentException Route [login] not defined.".
My Dashboard controller custom guard is:
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('auth:admin');
}
But the strange thing that i cant understand whats going on is that when i add in my web.php routes the "Auth::routes();", it works fine, the Exception NotAuthenticate gets fired.
Is there a reason why my custom only works has expected with i add the Auth::routes() ?

protected $redirectTo = '/admin/dashboard';
/**

{
$this->middleware('guest:admin')->except('logout');
}

{
$this->validateLogin($request);

// the login attempts for this application. We'll key this by the username and

$this->fireLockoutEvent($request);
return $this->sendLockoutResponse($request);
}
if ($this->attemptLogin($request)) {
return $this->sendLoginResponse($request);
}
// If the login attempt was unsuccessful we will increment the number of attempts
// to login and redirect the user back to the login form. Of course, when this
// user surpasses their maximum number of attempts they will get locked out.

return $this->sendFailedLoginResponse($request);
}
