One annoying thing about Traefik not doing things the Kubernetes way is that there doesn't seem to be an easy way to check on it from the console^[1]kubectl get crd really doesn't cut it . However, it has a browser-based dashboard, so if you're having trouble with setting up ingress, you can use that to see how it's been configured.

A Traefik service for the dashboard will be already running, so all we have to do is create an IngressRoute that accepts web requests and routes them to the service:

apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
kind: IngressRoute

metadata:
  name: traefik-dashboard

spec:

  entryPoints:
    - web

  routes:

  - kind: Rule
    match: Host(`traefik.k3s`) && (PathPrefix(`/dashboard`) || PathPrefix(`/api`))
    services:
    - kind: TraefikService
      name: api@internal

Set up a DNS entry for traefik.k3s on your client machine, and go to http://traefik.k3s/dashboard/^[2]The trailing / is important! in a browser:
