mTLS between Traefik and an upstream service (with ServersTransport.Certificates) does not work

Starrah · December 28, 2021, 9:22am

Hello there, I tried to configure an zero-trust mTLS connection between traefik and a upstream service. Traefik v2.5.6 is installed with Helm Chart onto k8s. I tried to use ServerTransport configuration, but the upstream service (written in Node.js) didn't receive the expected TLS client certificate, which should have been sent by traefik.

My config is as the following (with personal information replaced):

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: sso-dev
  annotations:
    traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/service.serversscheme: "https"
    traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/service.serverstransport: "auth-example-sso@kubernetescrd"
spec:

      http:
        paths:
          - path: /
            pathType: Prefix
            backend:
              service:
                name: sso-dev
                port:
                  number: 3000

Thank you!

Thank you!

Hello @Starrah,

Thanks for your interest in Traefik!

If the manifests you have shared, the namespace field is not present, so i assume that your resources are in the default namespace.

But in the annotation traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/service.serverstransport: "auth-example-sso@kubernetescrd", the reference to the serverstransport resource is prefixed by auth-, which should be the namespace of that resource (e.g. default).

The problem lies probably in this namespace mismatch.

Thus, an error should be visible in the debug logs, can you share the full log dump? (Especially the configuration received from the Kuberbernetes providers)
