How to configure default Traefik ingress provider?

[mf-guse]

Hi Everybody,

I need some help with the configuration of Traefik.

Rancher Desktop Version: 1.20.0
Kubernetes Version: 1.33.4

I have two issues:

1. I would like to activate the traefik dashboard
2. I would like to allow externalNameService

For issue 1 I found the documentation: https://docs.rancherdesktop.io/faq/#using-helmchartconfig-to-enable-dashboard-access
For issue 2 I found the traefik I found the option providers.kubernetesIngress.allowExternalNameServices, see https://github.com/traefik/traefik-helm-chart/blob/master/traefik/values.yaml#L155

So I tried to put this into a HelmChartConfig as documented in 1.

apiVersion: helm.cattle.io/v1
kind: HelmChartConfig
metadata:
  name: traefik
  namespace: kube-system
spec:
  valuesContent: |-
    dashboard:
      enabled: true
    ports:
      traefik:
        expose: true # Avoid this in production deployments
    logs:
      access:
        enabled: true
    providers:
      kubernetesIngress:
        allowExternalNameServices: true
      kubernetesCRD:
        allowExternalNameServices: true

Unfortunately both - enabling the dashboard and setting the additional parameters - does not work in my installation.

Any ideas? What am I doing wrong?
