  1. Challenge

    Generate Self-Signed Certificates for the Service and Store Them in a Secret

    Create a self-signed certificate and key for the Service. Provide a subject of /CN=accounts.svc for the certificate and place it in /home/cloud_user/. Name the certificate accounts.crt and the key accounts.key.

  2. Challenge

    Create an Ingress on Top of the Service That Configures TLS Termination

    The accounts-svc can be found in the accounts namespace. Create an Ingress in that same namespace that configures TLS termination for the Service. Use the certificate and key that you generated earlier. The Service listens on port 80.
