+Custom timeouts can be configured for HAProxy via annotations. Supports all valid timeout option
+for defaults section of HAProxy. [Read More](https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#4.2-timeout%20check)
+
+`ingress.appscode.com/default-timeout` expects a JSON encoded map of timeouts values.
+
+Ingress Example:
+```yaml
+apiVersion: voyager.appscode.com/v1beta1
+kind: Ingress
+metadata:
+  name: test-ingress
+  namespace: default
+  annotations:
+    ingress.appscode.com/default-timeout: '{"connect": "5s", "server": "10s"'
+spec:
+  backend:
+    serviceName: test-server
+    servicePort: '80'
+  rules:
+  - host: appscode.example.com
+    http:
+      paths:
+      - backend:
+          serviceName: test-service
+          servicePort: '80'
+```
+
+This ingress will generate a HAProxy template with provided timeouts. like
+```
+defaults
+    log global
+
+    option http-server-close
+    option dontlognull
+
+    # Timeout values
+    # timeout {{ key }}  {{ value }}
+    timeout  connect         5s
+    timeout  server          10s
+    timeout  client          50000
+    timeout  client-fin      50000
+    timeout  tunnel          50000
+
+```
+
+
+If any required timeouts is not provided timeouts will be populated with the following values.
+```
+    timeout  connect         50000
+	timeout  client          50000
+	timeout  client-fin      50000
+	timeout  server          50000
+	timeout  tunnel          50000
+```
+
+### Time Format
+Some parameters involve values representing time, such as timeouts. These
+values are generally expressed in milliseconds (unless explicitly stated
+otherwise) but may be expressed in any other unit by suffixing the unit to the
+numeric value. It is important to consider this because it will not be repeated
+for every keyword. Supported units are :
+
+  - us : microseconds. 1 microsecond = 1/1000000 second
+  - ms : milliseconds. 1 millisecond = 1/1000 second. This is the default.
+  - s  : seconds. 1s = 1000ms
+  - m  : minutes. 1m = 60s = 60000ms
+  - h  : hours.   1h = 60m = 3600s = 3600000ms
+  - d  : days.    1d = 24h = 1440m = 86400s = 86400000ms
+
+### Examples Annotations
+```
+ingress.appscode.com/default-timeout": {"client": "5s"}
+```
