Reporting Status of Ingress Resources

An Ingress resource can have a status that includes the address (an IP address or a DNS name), through which the hosts of that Ingress resource are publicly accessible. You can see the address in the output of the kubectl get ingress command, in the ADDRESS column, as shown below:

$ kubectl get ingresses
NAME           HOSTS              ADDRESS           PORTS     AGE
cafe-ingress   cafe.example.com   12.13.23.123      80, 443   2m

The Ingress controller must be configured to report an Ingress status:

  1. Use the command-line flag -report-ingress-status.
  2. Define a source for an external address. This can be either of:
    1. A user defined address, specified in the external-status-address ConfigMap key.
    2. A Service of the type LoadBalancer configured with an external IP or address and specified by the -external-service command-line flag.
  3. If you're running multiple replicas of the Ingress controller, enable leader election with the -enable-leader-election flag to ensure that only one replica updates an Ingress status.
  4. By default, the Ingress controller will use a ConfigMap with the name nginx-ingress-leader-election as the lock. This can be customised via the -leader-election-lock-name flag.

Notes: The Ingress controller does not clear the status of Ingress resources when it is being shut down.
