An SSL redirect is enabled by default in a Kubernetes NGINX ingress. How can this be disabled? In the rancher GUI i have created a Load Balancer with the annotations. [nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:](http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:) ‘false’ Bit if i open the url in chrome or firefox and add http:// the url is redirected to https:// Does anyone have an idea what is wrong?

Besides the annotation you have added: [nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:](http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:) ‘false’, you should also supply another one: [nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect:](http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect:) ‘false’ It really works. ---

Even after adding those two annotation [nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:‘false’](http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect:'false') [nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect:‘false’](http://nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/force-ssl-redirect:'false') Doesn’t work for me? ---

Make sure that not the browser already does that for you due to HSTS [1] [1] [HTTP Strict Transport Security – Wikipedia](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security) ---

Do you have an Load balancer in front of the cluster? If so, have you checked the settings there? And as @bpedersen2 - depending on the domain, it might have HSTS, or your browser just have cached it.
