 ### Configuring Ingress for External TLS when Using NGINX v0.25
 
-In NGINX v0.25, the behavior of NGINX has [changed](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/blob/master/Changelog.md#0220) regarding forwarding headers and external TLS termination. Therefore, in the scenario that you are using external TLS termination configuration with NGINX v0.25, you must edit the `cluster.yml` to enable the `use-forwarded-headers` option for ingress:

Without this required setting applied, the external LB will continuously respond with redirect loops it receives from the ingress controller. (This can be created before or after rancher is installed, rke2 server agent will notice this addition and automatically apply it.)
