How to expose XLB (not classic) in ingress GKE

Hello, 

Im working ingress with GKE, this is my config with ingress, that has expose XLB, but iim check on google console saw "Application (Classic)". My expectation is that google's new Application Load Balancing will support more advanced features.

GKE Ingress only supports the "classic" ALBs and we don't have any plans to add support for the latest.

GKE Gateway API is the recommended path going forward for L7 load balancing.  This is where we are implementing all of the latest and greatest ALB features, including support for the global external application load balancer.  You can check out all of the LB options by looking at the supported GatewayClasses.
