"Application Gateway AGIC / AKS with Private IP"

Question

Hello, I'm having difficulty obtaining clear information regarding the compatibility of Application Gateway with AGIC and AKS with the goal of exposing applications hosted on AKS using an application gateway but only with private IPs. I know that there was a limitation preventing the use of AGIC in a private IP context. Has this changed recently? Thank you.

Hello Dimitri COGNET, Welcome to microsoft Q&A, Thankyou for posting your query here. Yes, you can use Azure Application Gateway with AGIC and AKS to expose applications hosted on AKS using a private IP. there are some limitations to be aware of i. The AGIC add-on for AKS does support private IP addresses. You can overwrite the default value of usePrivateIp by using the use-private-ip annotation. ii. The AGIC add-on for AKS only supports Application Gateway v2 SKUs (Standard and WAF), and not the Application Gateway v1 SKUs. iii. that customers can only deploy one AGIC add-on per AKS cluster, and each AGIC add-on currently can only target one Application Gateway. please refer the document below to get more information regarding the same. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-gateway/ingress-controller-overview https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-gateway/tutorial-ingress-controller-add-on-existing?source=recommendations https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-gateway/tutorial-ingress-controller-add-on-new?source=recommendations https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/application-gateway/ingress-controller-troubleshoot Hope this helps you, please consider accepting the answer to help increase visibility of this question for other members of the Microsoft Q&A community.
