Chapter 5. Installing the Network controller to enable console

Procedure

1. Download YAML files, choose the latest Version for 2.1 at Software Downloads and download the Skupper deployments (yamls).

2. Create a site, for example:

   $ skupper site create west

3. Apply the Network controller YAML:

   $ kubectl apply -f skupper-network-observer-openshift-2.1.0-rh.yaml

4. Navigate to the console.

   On OpenShift:

   $ oc get routes

   The route is prefixed with skupper-network-observer-<site-namespace>. You can log in using OpenShift credentials.

   On other Kubernetes, expose the skupper-network-observer service. A skupper user is created and you can get the password using:

   $ kubectl --namespace <site-namespace> \
         get secret skupper-network-observer-auth \
         -o jsonpath='{.data.htpasswd}' | base64 -d | sed 's/\(.*\):{PLAIN}\(.*\)/\1 \2\n/'
