If you're using Laravel 5.2 and you installed the auth related functionality with php artisan make:auth then your app/Http/routes.php file will include all auth-related routes by simply calling Route::auth().

The auth() method can be found in vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Routing/Router.php. So if you want to do as some people suggest here and disable registration by removing unwanted routes (probably a good idea) then you have to copy the routes you still want from the auth() method and put them in app/Http/routes.php (replacing the call to Route::auth()). So for instance:

If you're using lower version than 5.2 then it's probably different, I remember things changed quite a bit since 5.0, at some point artisan make:auth was even removed IIRC.
