How can i setup nginx in such a way that in the nginx reverse proxy , we proxy pass set to http://xyz ( i.e redirecting to the kubernetes pod ) i want only my nginx to be made as https , i dont want to change the proxy pass to https , would it be possible
To my knowledge, what you describe is the default behavior of an Ingress Controller:
the SSL/TLS Termination is done by the Ingress Controller and the downstream traffic to the nodes is over HTTP.
