Creating an Ingress with availability zone set

In this section, we will deploy an Igress-Nginx controller using helm.

1. Add Ingress-Nginx helm repo and run helm repo update

   helm repo add ingress-nginx https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx
   helm repo update
   

2. Install Ingress-Nginx using helm with values.yaml file created in step 1

   helm install ingress-nginx -f values.yaml ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx --namespace ingress-nginx --create-namespace
   Release "ingress-nginx" has been upgraded. Happy Helming!

   If TLS is enabled for the Ingress, a Secret containing the certificate and key must also be provided:
   
     apiVersion: v1
     kind: Secret
     metadata:
       name: example-tls
       namespace: foo
     data:
       tls.crt: <base64 encoded cert>
       tls.key: <base64 encoded key>
     type: kubernetes.io/tls
   
      ...

      job.batch/ingress-nginx-admission-patch    1/1           59s        2m58s
   

3. Verify whether Ingress-Nginx ingress controller is successfully deployed by checking if ingress-nginx namespace is created and EXTERNAL-IP of service/ingress-nginx-controller is populated.

   kubectl get ns
   NAME          	STATUS   AGE
   default       	Active   3d14h
   ingress-nginx 	Active   4m29s

   kube-public   	Active   3d14h
   kube-system   	Active   3d14h
   
   

   kubectl get all -n ingress-nginx
