I have deployed the WeaveSocks sample app on a manually installed kubeadm that is hosted on a VM (Ubuntu 20.04) on Azure (educational purpose).

I want now the app to be able on the VM domain name : \<name>.switzerlandnorth.cloudapp.azure.com

Here is what I have : <br> Deploy the app

kubectl create namespace sock-shop
kubectl apply -n sock-shop -f "https://github.com/microservices-demo/microservices-demo/blob/master/deploy/kubernetes/complete-demo.yaml?raw=true"

kubectl -n sock-shop get svc front-end
NAME        TYPE       CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)        AGE
front-end   NodePort   10.98.85.243   <none>        80:30001/TCP   43m

Ingress Controller

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/controller-v1.1.1/deploy/static/provider/cloud/deploy.yaml

Ingress <br> ingress.yaml

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: sock-shop
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
spec:
  rules:
  - host: "<name>.switzerlandnorth.cloudapp.azure.com"
    http:
      paths:
      - pathType: Prefix
        path: "/"
        backend:
          service:
            name: sock-shop
            port:
              number: 80

kubectl apply -f ingress.yaml

Some commands that may be useful

kubectl get svc --all-namespaces

With this I'm unable to go to http://\<name>.switzerlandnorth.cloudapp.azure.com and see my app.

What am I doing wrong ?

EDIT I've done a telnet \<name\>.switzerlandnorth.cloudapp.azure.com 80 and it can't connect to port 80. So it seems that the Ingress is not listening at all on the port 80 of the host.
