The Konnectivity service provides a TCP level proxy for the control plane to cluster communication.
You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube.
The following steps require an egress configuration, for example:
admin/konnectivity/egress-selector-configuration.yaml apiVersion: apiserver.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: EgressSelectorConfiguration
egressSelections:
# Since we want to control the egress traffic to the cluster, we use the
# "cluster" as the name. Other supported values are "etcd", and "master".
- name: cluster
connection:
# This controls the protocol between the API Server and the Konnectivity
# server. Supported values are "GRPC" and "HTTPConnect". There is no
# end user visible difference between the two modes. You need to set the
# Konnectivity server to work in the same mode.
proxyProtocol: GRPC
transport:
# This controls what transport the API Server uses to communicate with the
# Konnectivity server. UDS is recommended if the Konnectivity server
# locates on the same machine as the API Server. You need to configure the
# Konnectivity server to listen on the same UDS socket.
# The other supported transport is "tcp". You will need to set up TLS
# config to secure the TCP transport.
uds:
udsName: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server/konnectivity-server.socket
You need to configure the API Server to use the Konnectivity service and direct the network traffic to the cluster nodes:
admin/konnectivity/egress-selector-configuration.yaml.--egress-selector-config-file flag of the API Server to the path of your API Server egress configuration file.spec:
containers:
volumeMounts:
- name: konnectivity-uds
mountPath: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server
readOnly: false
volumes:
- name: konnectivity-uds
hostPath:
path: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server
type: DirectoryOrCreate
Generate or obtain a certificate and kubeconfig for konnectivity-server. For example, you can use the OpenSSL command line tool to issue a X.509 certificate, using the cluster CA certificate /etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.crt from a control-plane host.
openssl req -subj "/CN=system:konnectivity-server" -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -out konnectivity.csr -keyout konnectivity.key -out konnectivity.csr
openssl x509 -req -in konnectivity.csr -CA /etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.crt -CAkey /etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.key -CAcreateserial -out konnectivity.crt -days 375 -sha256
SERVER=$(kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.clusters..server}')
kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf config set-credentials system:konnectivity-server --client-certificate konnectivity.crt --client-key konnectivity.key --embed-certs=true
kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf config set-cluster kubernetes --server "$SERVER" --certificate-authority /etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.crt --embed-certs=true
kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf config set-context system:konnectivity-server@kubernetes --cluster kubernetes --user system:konnectivity-server
kubectl --kubeconfig /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf config use-context system:konnectivity-server@kubernetes
rm -f konnectivity.crt konnectivity.key konnectivity.csr
Next, you need to deploy the Konnectivity server and agents. kubernetes-sigs/apiserver-network-proxy is a reference implementation.
Deploy the Konnectivity server on your control plane node. The provided konnectivity-server.yaml manifest assumes that the Kubernetes components are deployed as a static Pod in your cluster. If not, you can deploy the Konnectivity server as a DaemonSet.
admin/konnectivity/konnectivity-server.yaml apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: konnectivity-server
namespace: kube-system
spec:
priorityClassName: system-cluster-critical
hostNetwork: true
containers:
- name: konnectivity-server-container
image: us.gcr.io/k8s-artifacts-prod/kas-network-proxy/proxy-server:v0.0.16
command: ["/proxy-server"]
args: [
"--logtostderr=true",
# This needs to be consistent with the value set in egressSelectorConfiguration.
"--uds-name=/etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server/konnectivity-server.socket",
# The following two lines assume the Konnectivity server is
# deployed on the same machine as the apiserver, and the certs and
# key of the API Server are at the specified location.
"--cluster-cert=/etc/kubernetes/pki/apiserver.crt",
"--cluster-key=/etc/kubernetes/pki/apiserver.key",
# This needs to be consistent with the value set in egressSelectorConfiguration.
"--mode=grpc",
"--server-port=0",
"--agent-port=8132",
"--admin-port=8133",
"--health-port=8134",
"--agent-namespace=kube-system",
"--agent-service-account=konnectivity-agent",
"--kubeconfig=/etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf",
"--authentication-audience=system:konnectivity-server"
]
livenessProbe:
httpGet:
scheme: HTTP
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 8134
path: /healthz
initialDelaySeconds: 30
timeoutSeconds: 60
ports:

containerPort: 8132
hostPort: 8132
- name: adminport
containerPort: 8133
hostPort: 8133

containerPort: 8134
hostPort: 8134
volumeMounts:
- name: k8s-certs
mountPath: /etc/kubernetes/pki
readOnly: true
- name: kubeconfig
mountPath: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf
readOnly: true
- name: konnectivity-uds
mountPath: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server
readOnly: false
volumes:
- name: k8s-certs

hostPath:
path: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server.conf
type: FileOrCreate
- name: konnectivity-uds
hostPath:
path: /etc/kubernetes/konnectivity-server
type: DirectoryOrCreate
Then deploy the Konnectivity agents in your cluster:
admin/konnectivity/konnectivity-agent.yaml apiVersion: apps/v1
# Alternatively, you can deploy the agents as Deployments. It is not necessary
# to have an agent on each node.
