Ignition has no special code for WSFC, whatever that actually means in practice.  
If that feature can act like a reverse proxy/load balancer, then the answer I just gave in this other thread basically applies:

You'll have to use a product smart enough to distinguish between HTTP availability (whether the given redundant node is up at all) and Ignition's specific redundancy role (i.e. don't try to fail requests over to a backup that is not active). You can do this by checking the /system/gwinfo route.
