Template for an RKE Cluster with a Recognized CA Certificate and SSL Termination on Layer 7 Load Balancer
RKE uses a cluster.yml file to install and configure your Kubernetes cluster.
This template is intended to be used for RKE add-on installs, which are only supported up to Rancher v2.0.8. Please use the Rancher Helm chart if you are installing a newer Rancher version.
The following template can be used for the cluster.yml if you have a setup with:
- Layer 7 load balancer with SSL termination (HTTPS)
- NGINX Ingress controller
For more options, refer to RKE Documentation: Config Options.
