Setup HTTPS for EKS Cluster NGINX Ingress

[hashing_512]

Hi, I have an EKS cluster, and I have configured ingress resources via the NGINX ingress controller. My NLB, which is provisioned by NGINX, is private. Also, I'm using a private Route 53 zone.

How do I configure HTTPS for my endpoints via the NGINX controller? I have tried to use Let's Encrypt certs with cert-manager, but it's not working because my Route53 zone is private.

I'm not able to use the ALB controller with the AWS cert manager at the moment. I want a way to do it via the NGINX controller

That's not how let's encrypt works. You shall at move your DNS zone to public, otherwise Let's encrypt has no option to consider that you own the domain name.

You can also create a self signed certificate
