Chapter 15. Disabling multicast for a project


15.1. Disabling multicast between pods

You can disable multicast between pods for your project.

Prerequisites

  • Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • You must log in to the cluster with a user that has the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Disable multicast by running the following command:

    $ oc annotate namespace <namespace> \ 
    1
    
        k8s.ovn.org/multicast-enabled-
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    1
    The namespace for the project you want to disable multicast for.
    Tip

    You can alternatively apply the following YAML to delete the annotation:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Namespace
    metadata:
      name: <namespace>
      annotations:
        k8s.ovn.org/multicast-enabled: null
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
