+= Cert-Manager configuration
+
+"https://cert-manager.io[cert-manager]"; is a Kubernetes add-on to automate the 
management and issuance of TLS certificates. Camel K's Ingress trait can 
leverage cert-manager to automatically discover and use an existing Issuer or 
ClusterIssuer, annotating the generated Ingress so cert-manager handles 
certificate issuance and renewal.
+
+NOTE: cert-manager is an optional configuration. It is not required to run 
Camel K.

+[[install-cert-manager]]
+== Cert-Manager privileges
+
+Camel K needs certain privileges to read cert-manager's Issuer and 
ClusterIssuer resources. The installation procedure should take care of these 
privileges regardless of the installation methodology you're using.
+
+NOTE: you should https://cert-manager.io/docs/installation/[install 
cert-manager] before installing and running the Camel K Operator. This is 
required because the operator checks for cert-manager's presence once at 
startup. If you install cert-manager after Camel K, you must restart the Camel 
K operator Pod for auto-discovery to take effect.
