I need to specify External IP that will be associated to Nginx service upon the Ingress Controller creation using the HELM install:
helm install nginx-ingress ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx -f internal-ingress.yaml
--set controller.nodeSelector."beta\.kubernetes\.io/os"=linux
--set defaultBackend.nodeSelector."beta\.kubernetes\.io/os"=linux
So I want to set statically EXTERNAL-IP address that can be seen upon this creation:
kubectl get services
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
nginx-ingress-ingress-nginx-controller LoadBalancer 10.0.36.81 10.33.27.35 80:31312/TCP,443:30653/TCP 5d
I need this because DNS configuration has already been set up for this IP and I would like to avoid this kind of configuration again.
You can add flag to installation command:
--set controller.service.loadBalancerIP=XXXX
where XXXX is static EXTERNAL IP you want to use. Remember that IP needs to be regional and in the same region as the cluster.
