How to upgrate AKS ingresss to Azure WebApp Gateway safely

Steven Hoang 96

HI All,
I have an AKS cluster with egress firewall controlling and using nginx as for ingress controller. However, to increase the inbound security I would like to migrate to Azure Application Gateway.

How could I setup the gateway to work with Firewall?

Thanks
Steven

Hi @Sruthi Saranya Karthikeyan
Thanks for your answer, The sample above is AppGW + AKS however there is no egress controlling with Azure Firewall.

I saw this article

https://denniszielke.medium.com/securing-ingress-with-azureappgateway-and-egress-traffic-with-azurefirewall-for-azure-kubernetes-41af94051347

have both AppGW + Azure Firewall however, they are using some components developed by the community. I wonder why Microsoft is not fully supporting it?

btw, thank you so much for your help.
