# Deploying the Nginx Ingress controller
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example aims to demonstrate the deployment of an nginx ingress controller and
|
||
|
use a ConfigMap to configure custom Diffie-Hellman parameters file to help with
|
||
|
"Perfect Forward Secrecy".
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Default Backend
|
||
|
|
||
|
The default backend is a Service capable of handling all url paths and hosts the
|
||
|
nginx controller doesn't understand. This most basic implementation just returns
|
||
|
a 404 page:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ kubectl apply -f default-backend.yaml
|
||
|
deployment "default-http-backend" created
|
||
|
service "default-http-backend" created
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ kubectl -n kube-system get po
|
||
|
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
|
default-http-backend-2657704409-qgwdd 1/1 Running 0 28s
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Custom configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ cat nginx-load-balancer-conf.yaml
|
||
|
apiVersion: v1
|
||
|
data:
|
||
|
ssl-dh-param: "kube-system/lb-dhparam"
|
||
|
kind: ConfigMap
|
||
|
metadata:
|
||
|
name: nginx-load-balancer-conf
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ kubectl create -f nginx-load-balancer-conf.yaml
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Custom DH parameters secret
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$> openssl dhparam 1024 2> /dev/null | base64
|
||
|
LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBESCBQQVJBTUVURVJ...
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ cat ssl-dh-param.yaml
|
||
|
apiVersion: v1
|
||
|
data:
|
||
|
dhparam.pem: "LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBESCBQQVJBTUVURVJ..."
|
||
|
kind: Secret
|
||
|
type: Opaque
|
||
|
metadata:
|
||
|
name: lb-dhparam
|
||
|
namespace: kube-system
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ kubectl create -f ssl-dh-param.yaml
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Controller
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can deploy the controller as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ kubectl apply -f nginx-ingress-controller.yaml
|
||
|
deployment "nginx-ingress-controller" created
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ kubectl -n kube-system get po
|
||
|
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
|
default-http-backend-2657704409-qgwdd 1/1 Running 0 2m
|
||
|
nginx-ingress-controller-873061567-4n3k2 1/1 Running 0 42s
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Test
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check the contents of the configmap is present in the nginx.conf file using:
|
||
|
`kubectl exec nginx-ingress-controller-873061567-4n3k2 -n kube-system cat /etc/nginx/nginx.conf`
