Hello everybody! I have an important announcement that I'm sure many of you are already aware of, but if not... ingress-nginx was retired upstream as of March 2026; Traefik is now the default for new clusters starting in v1.36 (existing clusters will keep their current ingress upon upgrade to avoid breakage). This transition brings the following structural changes: • Airgapped Environments: The rke2-images-core tarball now contains Traefik images instead of ingress-nginx. The standalone rke2-images-traefik tarball has been removed. Users who must continue using ingress-nginx will now need to manually provide the rke2-images-ingress-nginx tarball. • Future Removal: The ingress-nginx chart will not receive any additional updates and will be completely removed in v1.37 for community users. • Prime Customers: Please refer to the official product documentation for specific Prime considerations. Please let us know here if you have any comments, questions, or feedback for us, we would be happy to receive it 🙂 TL;DR: As of v1.36.0, Traefik is the new default ingress in RKE2
