Support for the Azure Load Balancer property NumberOfProbes is ending

[adeelakhan]

Hello,

Azure is ending support for the poperty NumberOfProbes in 2027. When creating a service using ingress-nginx in AKS that creates a load balancer in Azure we can see that this property is being set alongwith the recommended replacement property probeThreshold. Checking to see if there is an issue/task already raised to deprecate this property in the upcoming releases.

app.kubernetes.io/version: 1.12.0
helm.sh/chart: ingress-nginx-4.12.0

Ingress NGINX is provider agnostic, we are not setting any provider specific annotations and only create a plain Kubernetes service resource, so provider implementation depends on your cloud controller.
