Ingress Suffix
As outlined in the 'Clusters -> Advanced Topics -> Ingress Access' section, you can enable the 'AccessPoint' feature to access a cluster API server directly by avoiding the vCluster Platform proxy. This requires a valid ingress controller to be present on the control plane cluster and a valid domain to be set in the loft.sh/ingress-suffix annotation on the Cluster Object.
Once this is done, vCluster Platform creates a connection to the cluster through an ingress instead of the default vCluster Platform proxy. This can be useful, if you want to handout the cluster kubeconfig to users that do not belong to vCluster Platform.
The ingress name URL is calculated in the following way:
[VirtualClusterInstance Name]-[Project Name].[ingressSuffix]
You can set the required ingress suffix in the vCluster Platform UI:
Go to Infra Management > Control Plane Clusters.
Click the option for the cluster you want to modify.
In the configuration sheet that opens, click the Direct Access tab. Provide the desired domain under the Cluster Ingress Suffix field.
Click the button.
This will require an ingress-controller in the cluster and a wildcard DNS record on the above configured domain. Make sure to enable ssl-passthrough on the ingress controller as well or install the ingress-nginx vCluster Platform app (deprecated).
