Ingress Operator in OKD

OKD Ingress Operator

When you create your OKD cluster, pods and services running on the cluster are each allocated their own IP addresses. The IP addresses are accessible to other pods and services running nearby but are not accessible to outside clients. The Ingress Operator implements the IngressController API and is the component responsible for enabling external access to OKD cluster services.

The Ingress Operator makes it possible for external clients to access your service by deploying and managing one or more HAProxy-based Ingress Controllers to handle routing. You can use the Ingress Operator to route traffic by specifying OKD Route and Kubernetes Ingress resources. Configurations within the Ingress Controller, such as the ability to define endpointPublishingStrategy type and internal load balancing, provide ways to publish Ingress Controller endpoints.

The Ingress configuration asset

The installation program generates an asset with an Ingress resource in the config.openshift.io API group, cluster-ingress-02-config.yml.

YAML Definition of the Ingress resource

apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: cluster
spec:
  domain: apps.openshiftdemos.com

The installation program stores this asset in the cluster-ingress-02-config.yml file in the manifests/ directory. This Ingress resource defines the cluster-wide configuration for Ingress. This Ingress configuration is used as follows:

• The Ingress Operator uses the domain from the cluster Ingress configuration as the domain for the default Ingress Controller.

• The OpenShift API Server Operator uses the domain from the cluster Ingress configuration. This domain is also used when generating a default host for a Route resource that does not specify an explicit host.

Ingress controller configuration parameters

The ingresscontrollers.operator.openshift.io resource offers the following configuration parameters.

nodePlacement:
 nodeSelector:
   matchLabels:
     beta.kubernetes.io/os: linux
 tolerations:
 - effect: NoSchedule
   operator: Exists

Ingress Controller TLS security profiles

TLS security profiles provide a way for servers to regulate which ciphers a connecting client can use when connecting to the server.

Understanding TLS security profiles

You can use a TLS (Transport Layer Security) security profile to define which TLS ciphers are required by various OKD components. The OKD TLS security profiles are based on Mozilla recommended configurations.

You can specify one of the following TLS security profiles for each component:

Configuring the TLS security profile for the Ingress Controller

To configure a TLS security profile for an Ingress Controller, edit the IngressController custom resource (CR) to specify a predefined or custom TLS security profile. If a TLS security profile is not configured, the default value is based on the TLS security profile set for the API server.

Sample IngressController CR that configures the Old TLS security profile

apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
kind: IngressController
 ...
spec:
  tlsSecurityProfile:
    old: {}
    type: Old
 ...

The TLS security profile defines the minimum TLS version and the TLS ciphers for TLS connections for Ingress Controllers.

You can see the ciphers and the minimum TLS version of the configured TLS security profile in the IngressController custom resource (CR) under Status.Tls Profile and the configured TLS security profile under Spec.Tls Security Profile. For the Custom TLS security profile, the specific ciphers and minimum TLS version are listed under both parameters.

Prerequisites

• You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

1. Edit the IngressController CR in the openshift-ingress-operator project to configure the TLS security profile:

   $ oc edit IngressController default -n openshift-ingress-operator

2. Add the spec.tlsSecurityProfile field:

   Sample IngressController CR for a Custom profile

   apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
   kind: IngressController
    ...
   spec:
     tlsSecurityProfile:
       type: Custom (1)
       custom: (2)
         ciphers: (3)
         - ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
         - ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
         - ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
         - ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
         minTLSVersion: VersionTLS11
    ...

   1	Specify the TLS security profile type (Old, Intermediate, or Custom). The default is Intermediate.
   2	Specify the appropriate field for the selected type: old: {} intermediate: {} custom:
   3	For the custom type, specify a list of TLS ciphers and minimum accepted TLS version.

3. Save the file to apply the changes.

Verification

• Verify that the profile is set in the IngressController CR:

  $ oc describe IngressController default -n openshift-ingress-operator

  Example output

  Name:         default
  Namespace:    openshift-ingress-operator
  Labels:       <none>
  Annotations:  <none>
  API Version:  operator.openshift.io/v1
  Kind:         IngressController
   ...
  Spec:
   ...
    Tls Security Profile:
      Custom:
        Ciphers:
          ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
          ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
          ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
          ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
        Min TLS Version:  VersionTLS11
      Type:               Custom
   ...

Ingress controller endpoint publishing strategy

NodePortService endpoint publishing strategy

The NodePortService endpoint publishing strategy publishes the Ingress Controller using a Kubernetes NodePort service.

In this configuration, the Ingress Controller deployment uses container networking. A NodePortService is created to publish the deployment. The specific node ports are dynamically allocated by OKD; however, to support static port allocations, your changes to the node port field of the managed NodePortService are preserved.

For more information, see the Kubernetes Services documentation on NodePort.

HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy

The HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy publishes the Ingress Controller on node ports where the Ingress Controller is deployed.

An Ingress controller with the HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy can have only one pod replica per node. If you want n replicas, you must use at least n nodes where those replicas can be scheduled. Because each pod replica requests ports 80 and 443 on the node host where it is scheduled, a replica cannot be scheduled to a node if another pod on the same node is using those ports.

View the default Ingress Controller

The Ingress Operator is a core feature of OKD and is enabled out of the box.

Every new OKD installation has an ingresscontroller named default. It can be supplemented with additional Ingress Controllers. If the default ingresscontroller is deleted, the Ingress Operator will automatically recreate it within a minute.

Procedure

• View the default Ingress Controller:

  $ oc describe --namespace=openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontroller/default

View Ingress Operator status

You can view and inspect the status of your Ingress Operator.

Procedure

• View your Ingress Operator status:

  $ oc describe clusteroperators/ingress

View Ingress Controller logs

You can view your Ingress Controller logs.

Procedure

• View your Ingress Controller logs:

  $ oc logs --namespace=openshift-ingress-operator deployments/ingress-operator

View Ingress Controller status

Your can view the status of a particular Ingress Controller.

Procedure

• View the status of an Ingress Controller:

  $ oc describe --namespace=openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontroller/<name>

Configuring the Ingress Controller

Setting a custom default certificate

As an administrator, you can configure an Ingress Controller to use a custom certificate by creating a Secret resource and editing the IngressController custom resource (CR).

Prerequisites

• You must have a certificate/key pair in PEM-encoded files, where the certificate is signed by a trusted certificate authority or by a private trusted certificate authority that you configured in a custom PKI.

• Your certificate meets the following requirements:

  • The certificate is valid for the ingress domain.

  • The certificate uses the subjectAltName extension to specify a wildcard domain, such as *.apps.ocp4.example.com.

• You must have an IngressController CR. You may use the default one:

  $ oc --namespace openshift-ingress-operator get ingresscontrollers

  Example output

  NAME      AGE
  default   10m

Procedure

The following assumes that the custom certificate and key pair are in the tls.crt and tls.key files in the current working directory. Substitute the actual path names for tls.crt and tls.key. You also may substitute another name for custom-certs-default when creating the Secret resource and referencing it in the IngressController CR.

1. Create a Secret resource containing the custom certificate in the openshift-ingress namespace using the tls.crt and tls.key files.

   $ oc --namespace openshift-ingress create secret tls custom-certs-default --cert=tls.crt --key=tls.key

2. Update the IngressController CR to reference the new certificate secret:

   $ oc patch --type=merge --namespace openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontrollers/default \
     --patch '{"spec":{"defaultCertificate":{"name":"custom-certs-default"}}}'

3. Verify the update was effective:

   $ echo Q |\
     openssl s_client -connect console-openshift-console.apps.<domain>:443 -showcerts 2>/dev/null |\
     openssl x509 -noout -subject -issuer -enddate

   where:

   <domain>

   Specifies the base domain name for your cluster.

   Example output

   subject=C = US, ST = NC, L = Raleigh, O = RH, OU = OCP4, CN = *.apps.example.com
   issuer=C = US, ST = NC, L = Raleigh, O = RH, OU = OCP4, CN = example.com
   notAfter=May 10 08:32:45 2022 GM

   The certificate secret name should match the value used to update the CR.

Once the IngressController CR has been modified, the Ingress Operator updates the Ingress Controller’s deployment to use the custom certificate.

Removing a custom default certificate

As an administrator, you can remove a custom certificate that you configured an Ingress Controller to use.

Prerequisites

• You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

• You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

• You previously configured a custom default certificate for the Ingress Controller.

Procedure

• To remove the custom certificate and restore the certificate that ships with OKD, enter the following command:

  $ oc patch -n openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontrollers/default \
    --type json -p $'- op: remove\n  path: /spec/defaultCertificate'

  There can be a delay while the cluster reconciles the new certificate configuration.

Verification

• To confirm that the original cluster certificate is restored, enter the following command:

  $ echo Q | \
    openssl s_client -connect console-openshift-console.apps.<domain>:443 -showcerts 2>/dev/null | \
    openssl x509 -noout -subject -issuer -enddate

  where:

  <domain>

  Specifies the base domain name for your cluster.

  Example output

  subject=CN = *.apps.<domain>
  issuer=CN = ingress-operator@1620633373
  notAfter=May 10 10:44:36 2023 GMT

Scaling an Ingress Controller

Manually scale an Ingress Controller to meeting routing performance or availability requirements such as the requirement to increase throughput. oc commands are used to scale the IngressController resource. The following procedure provides an example for scaling up the default IngressController.

Procedure

1. View the current number of available replicas for the default IngressController:

   $ oc get -n openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontrollers/default -o jsonpath='{$.status.availableReplicas}'

   Example output

   2

2. Scale the default IngressController to the desired number of replicas using the oc patch command. The following example scales the default IngressController to 3 replicas:

   $ oc patch -n openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontroller/default --patch '{"spec":{"replicas": 3}}' --type=merge

   Example output

   ingresscontroller.operator.openshift.io/default patched

3. Verify that the default IngressController scaled to the number of replicas that you specified:

   $ oc get -n openshift-ingress-operator ingresscontrollers/default -o jsonpath='{$.status.availableReplicas}'

   Example output

   3

Configuring Ingress access logging

You can configure the Ingress Controller to enable access logs. If you have clusters that do not receive much traffic, then you can log to a sidecar. If you have high traffic clusters, to avoid exceeding the capacity of the logging stack or to integrate with a logging infrastructure outside of OKD, you can forward logs to a custom syslog endpoint. You can also specify the format for access logs.

Container logging is useful to enable access logs on low-traffic clusters when there is no existing Syslog logging infrastructure, or for short-term use while diagnosing problems with the Ingress Controller.

Syslog is needed for high-traffic clusters where access logs could exceed the OpenShift Logging stack’s capacity, or for environments where any logging solution needs to integrate with an existing Syslog logging infrastructure. The Syslog use-cases can overlap.

Prerequisites

• Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

Procedure

Configure Ingress access logging to a sidecar.

• To configure Ingress access logging, you must specify a destination using spec.logging.access.destination. To specify logging to a sidecar container, you must specify Container spec.logging.access.destination.type. The following example is an Ingress Controller definition that logs to a Container destination:

  apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
  kind: IngressController
  metadata:
    name: default
    namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
  spec:
    replicas: 2
    endpointPublishingStrategy:
      type: NodePortService (1)
    logging:
      access:
        destination:
          type: Container

  1	NodePortService is not required to configure Ingress access logging to a sidecar. Ingress logging is compatible with any endpointPublishingStrategy.

• When you configure the Ingress Controller to log to a sidecar, the operator creates a container named logs inside the Ingress Controller Pod:

  $ oc -n openshift-ingress logs deployment.apps/router-default -c logs

  Example output

  2020-05-11T19:11:50.135710+00:00 router-default-57dfc6cd95-bpmk6 router-default-57dfc6cd95-bpmk6 haproxy[108]: 174.19.21.82:39654 [11/May/2020:19:11:50.133] public be_http:hello-openshift:hello-openshift/pod:hello-openshift:hello-openshift:10.128.2.12:8080 0/0/1/0/1 200 142 - - --NI 1/1/0/0/0 0/0 "GET / HTTP/1.1"

Configure Ingress access logging to a Syslog endpoint.

• To configure Ingress access logging, you must specify a destination using spec.logging.access.destination. To specify logging to a Syslog endpoint destination, you must specify Syslog for spec.logging.access.destination.type. If the destination type is Syslog, you must also specify a destination endpoint using spec.logging.access.destination.syslog.endpoint and you can specify a facility using spec.logging.access.destination.syslog.facility. The following example is an Ingress Controller definition that logs to a Syslog destination:

  apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
  kind: IngressController
  metadata:
    name: default
    namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
  spec:
    replicas: 2
    endpointPublishingStrategy:
      type: NodePortService
    logging:
      access:
        destination:
          type: Syslog
          syslog:
            address: 1.2.3.4
            port: 10514

  The syslog destination port must be UDP.

Configure Ingress access logging with a specific log format.

• You can specify spec.logging.access.httpLogFormat to customize the log format. The following example is an Ingress Controller definition that logs to a syslog endpoint with IP address 1.2.3.4 and port 10514:

  apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
  kind: IngressController
  metadata:
    name: default
    namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
  spec:
    replicas: 2
    endpointPublishingStrategy:
      type: NodePortService
    logging:
      access:
        destination:
          type: Syslog
          syslog:
            address: 1.2.3.4
            port: 10514
        httpLogFormat: '%ci:%cp [%t] %ft %b/%s %B %bq %HM %HU %HV'

Disable Ingress access logging.

• To disable Ingress access logging, leave spec.logging or spec.logging.access empty:

  apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
  kind: IngressController
  metadata:
    name: default
    namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
  spec:
    replicas: 2
    endpointPublishingStrategy:
      type: NodePortService
    logging:
      access: null

Ingress Controller sharding

As the primary mechanism for traffic to enter the cluster, the demands on the Ingress Controller, or router, can be significant. As a cluster administrator, you can shard the routes to:

• Balance Ingress Controllers, or routers, with several routes to speed up responses to changes.

• Allocate certain routes to have different reliability guarantees than other routes.

• Allow certain Ingress Controllers to have different policies defined.

• Allow only specific routes to use additional features.

• Expose different routes on different addresses so that internal and external users can see different routes, for example.

Ingress Controller can use either route labels or namespace labels as a sharding method.

Configuring Ingress Controller sharding by using route labels

Ingress Controller sharding by using route labels means that the Ingress Controller serves any route in any namespace that is selected by the route selector.

Ingress Controller sharding is useful when balancing incoming traffic load among a set of Ingress Controllers and when isolating traffic to a specific Ingress Controller. For example, company A goes to one Ingress Controller and company B to another.

Procedure

1. Edit the router-internal.yaml file:

   # cat router-internal.yaml
   apiVersion: v1
   items:
   - apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
     kind: IngressController
     metadata:
       name: sharded
       namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
     spec:
       domain: <apps-sharded.basedomain.example.net>
       nodePlacement:
         nodeSelector:
           matchLabels:
             node-role.kubernetes.io/worker: ""
       routeSelector:
         matchLabels:
           type: sharded
     status: {}
   kind: List
   metadata:
     resourceVersion: ""
     selfLink: ""

2. Apply the Ingress Controller router-internal.yaml file:

   # oc apply -f router-internal.yaml

   The Ingress Controller selects routes in any namespace that have the label type: sharded.

Configuring Ingress Controller sharding by using namespace labels

Ingress Controller sharding by using namespace labels means that the Ingress Controller serves any route in any namespace that is selected by the namespace selector.

Ingress Controller sharding is useful when balancing incoming traffic load among a set of Ingress Controllers and when isolating traffic to a specific Ingress Controller. For example, company A goes to one Ingress Controller and company B to another.

Procedure

1. Edit the router-internal.yaml file:

   # cat router-internal.yaml

   Example output

   apiVersion: v1
   items:
   - apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
     kind: IngressController
     metadata:
       name: sharded
       namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
     spec:
       domain: <apps-sharded.basedomain.example.net>
       nodePlacement:
         nodeSelector:
           matchLabels:
             node-role.kubernetes.io/worker: ""
       namespaceSelector:
         matchLabels:
           type: sharded
     status: {}
   kind: List
   metadata:
     resourceVersion: ""
     selfLink: ""

2. Apply the Ingress Controller router-internal.yaml file:

   # oc apply -f router-internal.yaml

   The Ingress Controller selects routes in any namespace that is selected by the namespace selector that have the label type: sharded.

Configuring an Ingress Controller to use an internal load balancer

When creating an Ingress Controller on cloud platforms, the Ingress Controller is published by a public cloud load balancer by default. As an administrator, you can create an Ingress Controller that uses an internal cloud load balancer.

See the Kubernetes Services documentation for implementation details.

Prerequisites

• Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).

• Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

Procedure

1. Create an IngressController custom resource (CR) in a file named <name>-ingress-controller.yaml, such as in the following example:

   apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
   kind: IngressController
   metadata:
     namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
     name: <name> (1)
   spec:
     domain: <domain> (2)
     endpointPublishingStrategy:
       type: LoadBalancerService
       loadBalancer:
         scope: Internal (3)

   1	Replace <name> with a name for the IngressController object.
   2	Specify the domain for the application published by the controller.
   3	Specify a value of Internal to use an internal load balancer.

2. Create the Ingress Controller defined in the previous step by running the following command:

   $ oc create -f <name>-ingress-controller.yaml (1)

   1	Replace <name> with the name of the IngressController object.

3. Optional: Confirm that the Ingress Controller was created by running the following command:

   $ oc --all-namespaces=true get ingresscontrollers

Configuring the default Ingress Controller for your cluster to be internal

You can configure the default Ingress Controller for your cluster to be internal by deleting and recreating it.

Prerequisites

• Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).

• Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

Procedure

1. Configure the default Ingress Controller for your cluster to be internal by deleting and recreating it.

   $ oc replace --force --wait --filename - <<EOF
   apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
   kind: IngressController
   metadata:
     namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
     name: default
   spec:
     endpointPublishingStrategy:
       type: LoadBalancerService
       loadBalancer:
         scope: Internal
   EOF

Configuring the route admission policy

Administrators and application developers can run applications in multiple namespaces with the same domain name. This is for organizations where multiple teams develop microservices that are exposed on the same hostname.

Prerequisites

• Cluster administrator privileges.

Procedure

• Edit the .spec.routeAdmission field of the ingresscontroller resource variable using the following command:

  $ oc -n openshift-ingress-operator patch ingresscontroller/default --patch '{"spec":{"routeAdmission":{"namespaceOwnership":"InterNamespaceAllowed"}}}' --type=merge

  Sample Ingress Controller configuration

  spec:
    routeAdmission:
      namespaceOwnership: InterNamespaceAllowed
  ...

Using wildcard routes

The HAProxy Ingress Controller has support for wildcard routes. The Ingress Operator uses wildcardPolicy to configure the ROUTER_ALLOW_WILDCARD_ROUTES environment variable of the Ingress Controller.

The default behavior of the Ingress Controller is to admit routes with a wildcard policy of None, which is backwards compatible with existing IngressController resources.

Procedure

1. Configure the wildcard policy.

   1. Use the following command to edit the IngressController resource:

      $ oc edit IngressController

   2. Under spec, set the wildcardPolicy field to WildcardsDisallowed or WildcardsAllowed:

      spec:
        routeAdmission:
          wildcardPolicy: WildcardsDisallowed # or WildcardsAllowed

Using X-Forwarded headers

You configure the HAProxy Ingress Controller to specify a policy for how to handle HTTP headers including Forwarded and X-Forwarded-For. The Ingress Operator uses the HTTPHeaders field to configure the ROUTER_SET_FORWARDED_HEADERS environment variable of the Ingress Controller.

Procedure

1. Configure the HTTPHeaders field for the Ingress Controller.

   1. Use the following command to edit the IngressController resource:

      $ oc edit IngressController

   2. Under spec, set the HTTPHeaders policy field to Append, Replace, IfNone, or Never:

      apiVersion: operator.openshift.io/v1
      kind: IngressController
      metadata:
        name: default
        namespace: openshift-ingress-operator
      spec:
        httpHeaders:
          forwardedHeaderPolicy: Append

Example use cases

As a cluster administrator, you can:

• Configure an external proxy that injects the X-Forwarded-For header into each request before forwarding it to an Ingress Controller.

  To configure the Ingress Controller to pass the header through unmodified, you specify the never policy. The Ingress Controller then never sets the headers, and applications receive only the headers that the external proxy provides.

• Configure the Ingress Controller to pass the X-Forwarded-For header that your external proxy sets on external cluster requests through unmodified.

  To configure the Ingress Controller to set the X-Forwarded-For header on internal cluster requests, which do not go through the external proxy, specify the if-none policy. If an HTTP request already has the header set through the external proxy, then the Ingress Controller preserves it. If the header is absent because the request did not come through the proxy, then the Ingress Controller adds the header.

As an application developer, you can:

• Configure an application-specific external proxy that injects the X-Forwarded-For header.

  To configure an Ingress Controller to pass the header through unmodified for an application’s Route, without affecting the policy for other Routes, add an annotation haproxy.router.openshift.io/set-forwarded-headers: if-none or haproxy.router.openshift.io/set-forwarded-headers: never on the Route for the application.

  You can set the haproxy.router.openshift.io/set-forwarded-headers annotation on a per route basis, independent from the globally set value for the Ingress Controller.

Enabling HTTP/2 Ingress connectivity

You can enable transparent end-to-end HTTP/2 connectivity in HAProxy. It allows application owners to make use of HTTP/2 protocol capabilities, including single connection, header compression, binary streams, and more.

You can enable HTTP/2 connectivity for an individual Ingress Controller or for the entire cluster.

To enable the use of HTTP/2 for the connection from the client to HAProxy, a route must specify a custom certificate. A route that uses the default certificate cannot use HTTP/2. This restriction is necessary to avoid problems from connection coalescing, where the client re-uses a connection for different routes that use the same certificate.

The connection from HAProxy to the application pod can use HTTP/2 only for re-encrypt routes and not for edge-terminated or insecure routes. This restriction is because HAProxy uses Application-Level Protocol Negotiation (ALPN), which is a TLS extension, to negotiate the use of HTTP/2 with the back-end. The implication is that end-to-end HTTP/2 is possible with passthrough and re-encrypt and not with insecure or edge-terminated routes.

Procedure

Enable HTTP/2 on a single Ingress Controller.

• To enable HTTP/2 on an Ingress Controller, enter the oc annotate command:

  $ oc -n openshift-ingress-operator annotate ingresscontrollers/<ingresscontroller_name> ingress.operator.openshift.io/default-enable-http2=true

  Replace <ingresscontroller_name> with the name of the Ingress Controller to annotate.

Enable HTTP/2 on the entire cluster.

• To enable HTTP/2 for the entire cluster, enter the oc annotate command:

  $ oc annotate ingresses.config/cluster ingress.operator.openshift.io/default-enable-http2=true

Configuring application domain for the Ingress Controller Operator on AWS

As a cluster administrator, you can specify an alternative default domain for user-created routes by configuring appsDomain field. If you specify an alternative domain, it overrides the default cluster domain for the purpose of determining the default host for a new route.

For example, you can use the DNS domain for your company as the default domain for routes and ingresses for applications running on your cluster.

Prerequisites

• You deployed an OKD cluster on AWS infrastructure.

• You installed the oc command line interface.

Procedure

1. Configure the appsDomain field by specifying an alternative default domain for user-created routes.

   1. Edit the Ingress Controller Operator:

      $ oc edit ingresses.config/cluster -o yaml

   2. Edit the YAML file:

      Sample appsDomain configuration to apps.acme.io

      apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
      kind: Ingress
      metadata:
        name: cluster
      spec:
        domain: apps.<domain_url>

2. Verify that an existing route contains the new domain name by exposing the route and verifying the route domain change:

   Wait for the openshift-apiserver finish rolling updates before exposing the route.

   1. Expose the route:

      $ oc expose service hello-openshift
      route.route.openshift.io/hello-openshift exposed

   2. Verify route domain change:

      $ oc get routes
      NAME              HOST/PORT                                   PATH   SERVICES          PORT       TERMINATION   WILDCARD
      hello-openshift   hello-openshift-my-project.apps.acme.io          hello-openshift   8080-tcp                 None
