Are Ingress working with ClusterIP services?

I've setup some services and ingresses to try out the SSL termination. I had no problem at all with LoadBalancer and NodePort services as backend but it's not working at all with ClusterIP service.

Although the Ingress' backend is described as healthy, I get an HTTP error that do not come from my application.

$ kubectl describe ing nginx-cluster-ssl-ingress

Namespace:      default
Address:        X.X.X.X

  27m       27m     1   {loadbalancer-controller }          Normal      CREATE  ip: X.X.X.X

The HTTP error is the following:

$ curl http://X.X.X.X/
default backend - 404%

My question is quite simple: is it supposed to work with ClusterIP services? If it is supposed to as more or less written in the documentation, where should I have a look to resolve that issue?

Thank you!

The native GKE Ingress controller do not support ClusterIP, only NodePort is working.

Non-native Ingress controllers such as the nginx one do work with ClusterIP services.

Nginx ingress controller on GKE works with ClusterIp. But the native GKE ingress controller does not as mentioned by @samuel-roze

kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
