+### Ingress Controller (Optional)
+
+To have a complete and useful setup, it is ideal to have an ingress controller running and it turns out that the Hetzner Cloud Controller allows us to automatically deploy a Hetzner Load Balancer that can be used by the ingress controller. We have chosen to use the Nginx ingress controller that you can install with the following command:
+
+```sh
+helm install --values=manifests/helm/nginx/values.yaml ingress-nginx ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx -n kube-system
+```
+
+_Note that the default geographic location and instance type of the load balancer can be changed by editing the [values.yaml](manifests/helm/nginx/values.yaml) file._

 ## Takedown
 
-- To take down your cluster, it's simple:
+If you chose to install the Nginx ingress controller, you need to delete it first to release the load balancer, as follows:
 
 ```sh
-terraform destroy -auto-approve
+helm delete ingress-nginx -n kube-system
 ```
 
-- Sometimes, the Hetzner network does not get deleted on its own (probably due to a temporary bug); we have to delete it manually after running the first command and re-run it.
+Then you can proceed to taking down the rest of the cluster with:
 
 ```sh
-hcloud network delete k3s-net
 terraform destroy -auto-approve
 ```
