03/15/2023, 11:46 PMYes but you'd have to disable ingress-nginx and install metallb and Traefik yourself

03/15/2023, 11:58 PMthe right way to disable nginx is with starting the rancher server with the disable ingnix flag or is there another method of disabling nginx ingress

03/16/2023, 12:00 AM--disable=rke2-ingress-ngxinx is the correct way do to that, yes
Starting RKE2 with that flag, NOT Rancher
Rancher is an application that is deployed to a Kubernetes cluster. RKE2 is the Kubernetes cluster distribution.

03/16/2023, 12:03 AMright,
Is there a way to disable it completely or would it better to go with the k3s ?

03/16/2023, 12:13 AMi use rke2 with metallb and a custom ingress-nginx all the time for my companies setups
works great
i dont ever use the built-in ingress tbh
you can also disable the default ingress after the cluster is already up but just fyi it deletes the entire ingress-nginx namespace when you do so

03/16/2023, 12:22 AMthe big thing form me is using traefik with the built in openid config and supporting udp out of the box
as far im aware nginx ingress doesn;t have that capability

03/16/2023, 12:25 AMthere are some other things that make rke2 and k3s different, but they are similar in a lot of ways. If you haven’t tried k3s you might check it out, it comes with traefik and a load-balancer out of the box.
