Payam Hekmat dd894f0f73 Add config for X-Forwarded-For trust
Use the same config option for `set_real_ip_from` when not using proxy protocol. The default remains `0.0.0.0/0`, which is insecure if the ingress is publicly accessible. This at least provides a workaround for #200

Ingress Controllers

Configuring a webserver or loadbalancer is harder than it should be. Most webserver configuration files are very similar. There are some applications that have weird little quirks that tend to throw a wrench in things, but for the most part you can apply the same logic to them and achieve a desired result. The Ingress resource embodies this idea, and an Ingress controller is meant to handle all the quirks associated with a specific "class" of Ingress (be it a single instance of a loadbalancer, or a more complicated setup of frontends that provide GSLB, DDoS protection etc).

What is an Ingress Controller?

An Ingress Controller is a daemon, deployed as a Kubernetes Pod, that watches the apiserver's /ingresses endpoint for updates to the Ingress resource. Its job is to satisfy requests for ingress.
