How to create a Google CDN for a GKE service

I've deployed a wordpress site on GKE (kubernetes) and I can access my Site from the internet like this mysite.test.com and works like a charm. Now I want to use Google CDN to accelerate access. I've tried using an Ingress resource but I would like to do it using a Load Balancing on the Networking tab on Google Console. What steps do I need to take?

I just wrote a post about using the Google CDN with Kubernetes:

The important parts:

  • Use a service with --type=NodePort
  • Create an ingress for that service
  • Use --enable-cdn on the created backend-service (you can do this from the command line or through the networking tab on console.cloud.google.com)
