In order to make Ingress controller works properly, you need to reserved an external IP. The external IP will works as endpoint from external request before the http request reach the pod with in in the cluster.

To reserve an external IP in Awanio Platform, go to Network menu then click Reserved IPs. Click “Create” button on the right top corner. In the new Reserved IP form page, you can use all or kubernetes option to get the IP.

Once you get the IP, use following command to install Nginx Ingress Controller via helm. In this example the external IP is 180.222.219.122, use your own IP value to make it works:

helm --kubeconfig my-cluster-kubeconfig.yaml upgrade \
--install ingress-nginx ingress-nginx \
--repo https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx \
--namespace ingress-nginx --create-namespace \
--set controller.service.loadBalancerIP=180.222.219.122
