The ingress-nginx module: Custom Resources

Deprecated resource. Support for the resource might be removed in a later release.

• spec

  object

  Required value

  • spec.acceptRequestsFrom

    array of strings

    IP or CIDR that is allowed to access the Ingress controller.

    Regardless of the inlet type, the source IP address gets always verified (the original_address field in logs) (the address that the connection was established from) and not the “address of the client” that can be passed in some inlets via headers or using the proxy protocol.

    This parameter is implemented using the map module. If the source address is not in the list of allowed addresses, nginx closes the connection immediately using HTTP code 444.

    By default, the connection to the controller can be made from any address.

    • Element of the array

      string

      Pattern: ^(([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])\.){3}([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])(\/(3[0-2]|[1-2][0-9]|[0-9]))$

  • spec.additionalHeaders

    object

    Additional headers to add to all request. (map: key (string)).

    boolean

    The instrument for unexpected and random termination of ingress controller Pods in a systemic manner. Chaos Monkey tests the resilience of ingress controller.

    Default: false

  • spec.config

    object

    The section with the Ingress controller parameters.

    You can specify any supported parameter in it in the key: value (string) format.

    Caution! An erroneous option may lead to the failure of the ingress controller;

    Caution! The usage of this parameter is not recommended; the backward compatibility or operability of the ingress controller that uses this option is not guaranteed

      Example:

      serviceName: custom-errors-backend-service
      

  • spec.defaultSSLCertificate

    object

    This certificate is used:

    • for catch-all server requests (here, “catch-all server” refers to the nginx server directive). Requests for which there is no corresponding Ingress resource end up on the catch-all server.
    • for Ingress resources that do not have a secretName specified in the tls section.

    By default, a self-signed certificate is used.

    Caution! This parameter does not affect certificates used in the Ingress resources of the Deckhouse modules. You can specify the certificate to be used in the Ingress resources of the Deckhouse modules with the modules.https.customCertificate global parameter.

    • spec.defaultSSLCertificate.secretRef

    boolean

    Switch off HTTP2 support.

    Default: false

  • spec.enableIstioSidecar

    boolean

    Attach annotations to the controller pods to automatically inject Istio sidecar containers.

    After setting this parameter, the sidecar.istio.io/inject: "true" and traffic.sidecar.istio.io/includeOutboundIPRanges: "<Service CIDR>" annotations will be attached to the ingress-controller pods. During pod creation, the Istio’s mutating webhook will add the sidecar to it. After that, the sidecar will catch the network traffic to Service CIDR.

    To use this feature in your application, you must add these annotations to your Ingress resources:

    • nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/service-upstream: "true" — using this annotation, the ingress-controller sends requests to a single ClusterIP (from Service CIDR) while envoy load balances them. Istio sidecar containers only catching traffic directed to Service CIDR.
    • nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/upstream-vhost: myservice.myns.svc — using this annotation, the sidecar can identify the application service that serves requests.
