Read the first 6 CKA Services and Ingress flashcards as text

  1. What is the primary purpose of an Ingress resource in Kubernetes?

    Answer: To manage HTTP/HTTPS routing from outside the cluster to internal services

    An Ingress resource defines HTTP/HTTPS routing rules, enabling external traffic to reach internal services with host/path-based routing and TLS termination.

  2. What must be deployed in a cluster before Ingress resources can route traffic?

    Answer: An Ingress Controller

    An Ingress Controller (such as ingress-nginx or Traefik) must be running to implement and enforce the rules defined in Ingress resources.

  3. Which Ingress spec field specifies which Ingress controller should handle a given Ingress resource?

    Answer: spec.ingressClassName

    The `spec.ingressClassName` field references an IngressClass object that maps to a specific Ingress controller.

  4. How is TLS termination configured in an Ingress resource?

    Answer: Add a tls section referencing a Secret with the certificate and key

    TLS is configured via the `spec.tls` array in the Ingress, referencing a Kubernetes Secret that contains the TLS certificate and private key.

  5. Which Ingress `pathType` value matches only the exact URL path with no prefix tolerance?

    Answer: Exact

    The `Exact` pathType matches only requests whose URL path is identical to the specified path, with no trailing slash tolerance.

  6. Which Ingress pathType routes all URLs that begin with the specified path?

    Answer: Prefix

    The `Prefix` pathType matches any URL path that starts with the specified prefix, enabling routing for an entire path subtree.
