Chapter 5. Installing the policy system


Installing the Skupper policy system on a cluster allows you control how Skupper is used on the cluster.

Note

Applying the policy system in a cluster without specific policy rules prohibits site linking and service exposure. If you are installing the policy system on a cluster where there are existing sites, you must create policies before installing the policy system to avoid disruption.

Prerequisites

  • Access to a Kubernetes cluster with cluster-admin privileges.
  • The Red Hat Service Interconnect Operator is installed

Procedure

  1. Log into your cluster.
  2. Deploy the policy CRD:

    $ kubectl apply -f skupper_cluster_policy_crd.yaml
    
    customresourcedefinition.apiextensions.k8s.io/skupperclusterpolicies.skupper.io created
    clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/skupper-service-controller created

    where the contents of skupper_cluster_policy_crd.yaml is specified in the Appendix A, YAML for the Skupper policy CRD appendix.

Additional information

See Securing a service network using policies for more information about using policies.
