= Scaling an Ingress Controller

Manually scale an Ingress Controller to meeting routing performance or
availability requirements such as the requirement to increase throughput. `oc`
commands are used to scale the `IngressController` resource. The following
procedure provides an example for scaling up the default `IngressController`.
