Hi all - Bit confused about how to get Traefik v3 ...

Hi all - Bit confused about how to get Traefik v3 to be deployed with my k3s. for my version of k3s (v1.32.3+k3s1), the traefik.yaml manifest shows chart version 34.2.1, however my helm is deploying chart version 27.0.2
Copy code
traefik                 kube-system             2               2025-05-12 15:28:49.552938528 +0000 UTC deployed        traefik-27.0.201+up27.0.2       v2.11.10   
traefik-crd             kube-system             1               2025-05-05 13:22:19.905144112 +0000 UTC deployed        traefik-crd-27.0.201+up27.0.2   v2.11.10
why is this?

Hi Ron, not sure without some more details. Can you confirm the helm install pod completed successfully? Did you install k3s via Rancher cluster creation or with the k3s install script outside of rancher?
On my end, I just upgraded a k3s cluster I have from 1.30.11 to your version 1.32.3 and can confirm the traefik version is 34.2.1.

I just did a k3s upgrade from 1.30.11 to 1.32.3 and can confirm it upgrades k3s Traefik to 34.2.1

Thanks for the response - I used the install script 
curl -sfL <https://get.k3s.io> | sh -
The version of k3s that k3d was using was an older version. After specifying the image 
--image rancher/k3s:v1.32.3-k3s1
in my k3d cluster create command, I had the latest k3s version and subsequently Traefik v3. Thanks for your help!
