+# Ingress
+
+The ingress component is the primary entry point for all traffic to the cluster,
+it is currently deployed as an instance of `ingress-nginx`.  It is tuned to work
+out of the box and should require no changes
+
+!!! warning
+
+   If you make any changes to the ingress configuration, you may see a small
+   outage as the ingress controller is restarted.
+
+## Customization
+
+You can customize the deployment of the ingress controller by editing the
+`ingress_nginx` section.
+
+!!! warning
+
+    This can result in unsupported behaviour, and is not recommended unless you
+    know what you're doing.
+
+### Disabling
+
+If you're looking to disable the ingress component, you can use the following
+configuration:
+
+```yaml
+atmosphere_config:
+  ingress_nginx:
+    enabled: false
+```
+
+### Overriding chart values
+
+If you're looking to make changes to the Helm chart values used for the deployment
+of the Ingress, you can use the following configuration:
+
+```yaml
+atmosphere_config:
+  ingress_nginx:
+    overrides:
+      foo: bar
+```
+
+This will be merged with the default values for the chart, and will override any
+values that Atmosphere includes out of the box.
