Citrix ADC CPX with Citrix ingress Controller running as sidecar.

Citrix ADC CPX with the Citrix Ingress Controller running in side-car mode will configure the CPX that runs as pod in Kubernetes cluster.

TL;DR;

helm repo add cic https://citrix.github.io/citrix-k8s-ingress-controller/

helm install cic/citrix-k8s-cpx-ingress-controller --set license.accept=yes

Note: "license.accept" is a mandatory argument and should be set to "yes" to accept the terms of the Citrix license.

Introduction

This Chart deploys Citrix ADC CPX with inbuilt Ingress Controller in the Kubernetes Cluster using Helm package manager

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.6+
• Helm 2.8.x+
• Prometheus operator needs to be installed if you want to use exporter along with CIC.

Installing the Chart

Add the Citrix Ingress Controller helm chart repository using command:

helm repo add cic https://citrix.github.io/citrix-k8s-ingress-controller/

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

helm install cic/citrix-k8s-cpx-ingress-controller --name my-release --set license.accept=yes,ingressClass[0]=<ingressClassName>

To run the exporter as sidecar with CPX, please install prometheus operator first and then use the following command:

helm install cic/citrix-k8s-cpx-ingress-controller --name my-release --set license.accept=yes,ingressClass[0]=<ingressClassName>,exporter.require=1.0

If you want to visualize the metrices collected by exporter from Citrix ADC CPX please refer "Visualization of Metrics".

The command deploys Citrix ADC CPX with Citrix Ingress Controller running in side-car mode on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The configuration section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

helm delete --purge my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release

Configuration

The following table lists the configurable parameters of the CPX with inBuilt Ingress Controller chart and their default values.

Tip: You can use the default values.yaml

RBAC

By default the chart will install the recommended RBAC roles and rolebindings.

Exporter

Exporter is running as sidecar with the CPX and pulling metrics from the CPX. It exposes the metrics using Kubernetes NodePort.
