Annotations for Application Gateway Ingress Controller

Introductions

The Kubernetes Ingress resource can be annotated with arbitrary key/value pairs. AGIC relies on annotations to program Application Gateway features, which are not configurable via the Ingress YAML. Ingress annotations are applied to all HTTP setting, backend pools, and listeners derived from an ingress resource.

List of supported annotations

For an Ingress resource to be observed by AGIC, it must be annotated with kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway. Only then AGIC will work with the Ingress resource in question.

Annotation Key Value Type Default Value Allowed Values
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-path-prefix string nil
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect bool false
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining bool false
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining-timeout int32 (seconds) 30
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/cookie-based-affinity bool false
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/request-timeout int32 (seconds) 30
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip bool false
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol string http http, https

Backend Path Prefix

This annotation allows the backend path specified in an ingress resource to be rewritten with prefix specified in this annotation. This allows users to expose services whose endpoints are different than endpoint names used to expose a service in an ingress resource.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-path-prefix: <path prefix>

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-bkprefix
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-path-prefix: "/test/"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 80

In the example above, we have defined an ingress resource named go-server-ingress-bkprefix with an annotation appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-path-prefix: "/test/" . The annotation tells application gateway to create an HTTP setting, which will have a path prefix override for the path /hello to /test/.

Note

In the above example we have only one rule defined. However, the annotations are applicable to the entire ingress resource, so if a user had defined multiple rules, the backend path prefix would be set up for each of the paths specified. Thus, if a user wants different rules with different path prefixes (even for the same service) they would need to define different ingress resources.

TLS Redirect

Application Gateway can be configured to automatically redirect HTTP URLs to their HTTPS counterparts. When this annotation is present and TLS is properly configured, Kubernetes Ingress controller will create a routing rule with a redirection configuration and apply the changes to your Application Gateway. The redirect created will be HTTP 301 Moved Permanently.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-redirect
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"
spec:
  tls:
   - hosts:
     - www.contoso.com
     secretName: testsecret-tls
  rules:
  - host: www.contoso.com
    http:
      paths:
      - backend:
          serviceName: websocket-repeater
          servicePort: 80

Connection Draining

connection-draining: This annotation allows users to specify whether to enable connection draining. connection-draining-timeout: This annotation allows users to specify a timeout after which Application Gateway will terminate the requests to the draining backend endpoint.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining: "true"
appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining-timeout: "60"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-drain
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining: "true"
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/connection-draining-timeout: "60"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 80

Cookie Based Affinity

This annotation allows to specify whether to enable cookie based affinity.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/cookie-based-affinity: "true"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-affinity
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/cookie-based-affinity: "true"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 80

Request Timeout

This annotation allows to specify the request timeout in seconds after which Application Gateway will fail the request if response is not received.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/request-timeout: "20"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-timeout
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/request-timeout: "20"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 80

Use Private IP

This annotation allows us to specify whether to expose this endpoint on Private IP of Application Gateway.

Note

  • Application Gateway doesn't support multiple IPs on the same port (example: 80/443). Ingress with annotation appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip: "false" and another with appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip: "true" on HTTP will cause AGIC to fail in updating the Application Gateway.
  • For Application Gateway that doesn't have a private IP, Ingresses with appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip: "true" will be ignored. This will reflected in the controller logs and ingress events for those ingresses with NoPrivateIP warning.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip: "true"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-timeout
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-private-ip: "true"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 80

Backend Protocol

This annotation allows us to specify the protocol that Application Gateway should use while talking to the Pods. Supported Protocols: http, https

Note

  • While self-signed certificates are supported on Application Gateway, currently, AGIC only support https when Pods are using certificate signed by a well-known CA.
  • Make sure to not use port 80 with HTTPS and port 443 with HTTP on the Pods.

Usage

appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol: "https"

Example

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: go-server-ingress-timeout
  namespace: test-ag
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: azure/application-gateway
    appgw.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol: "https"
spec:
  rules:
  - http:
      paths:
      - path: /hello/
        backend:
          serviceName: go-server-service
          servicePort: 443
