The Ingress controller examples have moved to the kubernetes/ingress repository.
Create the Ingress controller
kubectl create -f rc-default.yaml
To test if everything is working correctly:
curl -v http://<node IP address>:80/foo -H 'Host: foo.bar.com'
You should see an output similar to
* Trying 172.17.4.99...
* Connected to 172.17.4.99 (172.17.4.99) port 80 (#0)

default backend - 404
* Connection #0 to host 172.17.4.99 left intact
(this test checked that the default backend is properly working)
Replacing the default backend with a custom one we can change the default error pages provided by nginx
