Original: |Defines the policy for HTTP traffic compression.
* `httpCompression.mimeTypes` defines a list of or a single MIME type to which compression is applied. For example, `text/css; charset=utf-8`, `text/html`, `text/*`, `image/svg+xml`, `application/octet-stream`, `X-custom/customsub`, using the format pattern, `type/subtype; [;attribute=value]`. The `types` are: application, image, message, multipart, text, video, or a custom type prefaced by `X-`. To see the full notation for MIME types and subtypes, see link:https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1341#page-7[RFC1341] (IETF Datatracker documentation).
|Describes how HTTP connections are handled if the connection times out before a request is received. Allowed values for this field are `Respond` and `Ignore`. The default value is `Respond`. The following are valid values:
* `Respond`, causes the ingress controller to send an HTTP `400` or `408` response, logs the connection if access logging is enabled, and counts the connection in the appropriate metrics.
* `Ignore`, adds the `http-ignore-probes` parameter in the `HAproxy` configuration. If the field is set to `Ignore`, the ingress controller closes the connection without sending a response, then logs the connection or incrementing metrics.
Usually, empty request connections come from load balancer health probes or web browser preconnects and can be safely ignored. However, network errors and port scans can also create these empty requests, so setting this field to `Ignore` can impede detecting or diagnosing problems and also impede the detection of intrusion attempts.
|Specifies connections for which no request is received and logged. Usually, these empty requests come from load balancer health probes or web browser speculative connections such as preconnects. Logging these types of empty requests can be undesirable. However, network errors and port scans can also create empty requests, so setting this field to `Ignore` can impede detecting or diagnosing problems and also impede the detection of intrusion attempts.
The following are valid values:
* `Log`, which indicates that an event should be logged.
* `Ignore`, which sets the `dontlognull` option in the `HAproxy` configuration.
|Specifies options for tuning the performance of ingress controller pods.
* The `tuningOptions.clientFinTimeout` parameter specifies how long a connection is held open while waiting for the client response to the server closing the connection. The default timeout is `1s`.
* The `tuningOptions.clientTimeout` parameter specifies how long a connection is held open while waiting for a client response. The default timeout is `30s`.
* The `tuningOptions.headerBufferBytes` parameter specifies how much memory is reserved, in bytes, for Ingress Controller connection sessions. This value must be at least `16384` if HTTP/2 is enabled for the Ingress Controller. If not set, the default value is `32768` bytes.
* The `tuningOptions.headerBufferMaxRewriteBytes` parameter specifies how much memory should be reserved, in bytes, from `headerBufferBytes` for HTTP header rewriting and appending for Ingress Controller connection sessions. The minimum value for `headerBufferMaxRewriteBytes` is `4096`. The `headerBufferBytes` value must be greater than the `headerBufferMaxRewriteBytes` value for incoming HTTP requests.
* If not set, the default value is `8192` bytes.
Setting this field is not recommended because `headerBufferMaxRewriteBytes` parameter values that are too small can break the ingress controller. Conversely, values for `headerBufferMaxRewriteBytes` that are too large could cause the ingress controller to use significantly more memory than necessary.
* The `tuningOptions.healthCheckInterval` parameter specifies how long the router waits between health checks. The default is `5s`.
* The `tuningOptions.serverFinTimeout` parameter specifies how long a connection is held open while waiting for the server response to the client that is closing the connection. The default timeout is `1s`.
* The `tuningOptions.serverTimeout` parameter specifies how long a connection is held open while waiting for a server response. The default timeout is `30s`.
* The `tuningOptions.threadCount` parameter specifies the number of threads to create per HAProxy process. Creating more threads allows each ingress controller pod to handle more connections, at the cost of more system resources being used. `HAProxy` supports up to `64` threads. If this field is empty, default value is `4` threads.
Setting this field is not recommended because increasing the number of `HAProxy` threads allows ingress controller pods to use more CPU time under load, and prevent other pods from receiving the CPU resources they need to perform.
* The `tuningOptions.tlsInspectDelay` parameter specifies how long the router can hold data to find a matching route. Setting this value too short can cause the router to fall back to the default certificate for edge-terminated, re-encrypted, or passthrough routes, even when using a better-matched certificate. The default inspect delay is `5s`.
Revised: ** If this field is left empty or has the value `0`, the ingress controller uses the default value of `50000`. This value is subject to change in future releases.
