title description
Kubernetes Ingress Routing Configuration Understand the routing configuration for the Kubernetes Ingress Controller and Traefik Proxy. Read the technical documentation.

Traefik & Kubernetes

The Kubernetes Ingress Controller. {: .subtitle }

Routing Configuration

The provider then watches for incoming ingresses events, such as the example below, and derives the corresponding dynamic configuration from it, which in turn will create the resulting routers, services, handlers, etc.

Configuration Example

Path Types on Kubernetes 1.18+

If the Kubernetes cluster version is 1.18+, the new pathType property can be leveraged to define the rules matchers:

  • Exact: This path type forces the rule matcher to Path
  • Prefix: This path type forces the rule matcher to PathPrefix

Please see this documentation for more information.

!!! warning "Multiple Matches" In the case of multiple matches, Traefik will not ensure the priority of a Path matcher over a PathPrefix matcher, as stated in this documentation.

TLS

Enabling TLS via HTTP Options on Entrypoint

TLS can be enabled through the HTTP options of an Entrypoint:

# Static configuration
--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443
--entrypoints.websecure.http.tls
# Static configuration
entryPoints:
  websecure:
    address: ':443'
    http:
      tls: {}
# Static configuration
[entryPoints.websecure]
  address = ":443"

    [entryPoints.websecure.http.tls]

This way, any Ingress attached to this Entrypoint will have TLS termination by default.

Enabling TLS via Annotations

To enable TLS on the underlying router created from an Ingress, one should configure it through annotations:

traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/router.tls: "true"

For more options, please refer to the available annotations.

  # Only selects which certificate(s) should be loaded from the secret, in order to terminate TLS.
  # Doesn't enable TLS for that ingress (hence for the underlying router).
  # Please see the TLS annotations on ingress made for that purpose.
  tls:

  # Only selects which certificate(s) should be loaded from the secret, in order to terminate TLS.
  # Doesn't enable TLS for that ingress (hence for the underlying router).
  # Please see the TLS annotations on ingress made for that purpose.
  tls:
  - secretName: supersecret
```

```yaml tab="Secret"
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: supersecret

data:
  tls.crt: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBDRVJUSUZJQ0FURS0tLS0tCi0tLS0tRU5EIENFUlRJRklDQVRFLS0tLS0=
  tls.key: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBQUklWQVRFIEtFWS0tLS0tCi0tLS0tRU5EIFBSSVZBVEUgS0VZLS0tLS0=
```

TLS certificates can be managed in Secrets objects.

!!! info

Only TLS certificates provided by users can be stored in Kubernetes Secrets.
[Let's Encrypt](../../https/acme.md) certificates cannot be managed in Kubernetes Secrets yet.

Communication Between Traefik and Pods

Traefik automatically requests endpoint information based on the service provided in the ingress spec. Although Traefik will connect directly to the endpoints (pods), it still checks the service port to see if TLS communication is required.

There are 3 ways to configure Traefik to use https to communicate with pods:

  1. If the service port defined in the ingress spec is 443 (note that you can still use targetPort to use a different port on your pod).
  2. If the service port defined in the ingress spec has a name that starts with https (such as https-api, https-web or just https).
  3. If the service spec includes the annotation traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/service.serversscheme: https.

If either of those configuration options exist, then the backend communication protocol is assumed to be TLS, and will connect via TLS automatically.

!!! info

Please note that by enabling TLS communication between traefik and your pods,
you will have to have trusted certificates that have the proper trust chain and IP subject name.
If this is not an option, you may need to skip TLS certificate verification.
See the [insecureSkipVerify](../../routing/overview.md#insecureskipverify) setting for more details.

Global Default Backend Ingresses

Ingresses can be created that look like the following:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
 name: cheese

spec:
  defaultBackend:
    service:
      name: stilton
      port:
        number: 80
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
 name: cheese

spec:
  defaultBackend:
    serviceName: stilton
    serverPort: 80

This ingress follows the Global Default Backend property of ingresses. This will allow users to create a "default router" that will match all unmatched requests.

!!! info

Due to Traefik's use of priorities, you may have to set this ingress priority lower than other ingresses in your environment,
to avoid this global ingress from satisfying requests that could match other ingresses.

To do this, use the `traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/router.priority` annotation (as seen in [Annotations on Ingress](#on-ingress)) on your ingresses accordingly.
