Chapter 7. Configuring the Ingress Controller endpoint publishing strategy
7.1. Ingress Controller endpoint publishing strategy
NodePortService endpoint publishing strategy
The NodePortService endpoint publishing strategy publishes the Ingress Controller using a Kubernetes NodePort service.
In this configuration, the Ingress Controller deployment uses container networking. A NodePortService is created to publish the deployment. The specific node ports are dynamically allocated by OpenShift Container Platform; however, to support static port allocations, your changes to the node port field of the managed NodePortService are preserved.
Figure 7.1. Diagram of NodePortService
The preceding graphic shows the following concepts pertaining to OpenShift Container Platform Ingress NodePort endpoint publishing strategy:
- All the available nodes in the cluster have their own, externally accessible IP addresses. The service running in the cluster is bound to the unique NodePort for all the nodes.
-
When the client connects to a node that is down, for example, by connecting the
10.0.128.4IP address in the graphic, the node port directly connects the client to an available node that is running the service. In this scenario, no load balancing is required. As the image shows, the10.0.128.4address is down and another IP address must be used instead.
The Ingress Operator ignores any updates to .spec.ports[].nodePort fields of the service.
By default, ports are allocated automatically and you can access the port allocations for integrations. However, sometimes static port allocations are necessary to integrate with existing infrastructure which may not be easily reconfigured in response to dynamic ports. To achieve integrations with static node ports, you can update the managed service resource directly.
For more information, see the Kubernetes Services documentation on NodePort.
HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy
The HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy publishes the Ingress Controller on node ports where the Ingress Controller is deployed.
An Ingress Controller with the HostNetwork endpoint publishing strategy can have only one pod replica per node. If you want n replicas, you must use at least n nodes where those replicas can be scheduled. Because each pod replica requests ports 80 and 443 on the node host where it is scheduled, a replica cannot be scheduled to a node if another pod on the same node is using those ports.
7.1.1. Configuring the Ingress Controller endpoint publishing scope to Internal
When a cluster administrator installs a new cluster without specifying that the cluster is private, the default Ingress Controller is created with a scope set to External. Cluster administrators can change an External scoped Ingress Controller to Internal.
Prerequisites
-
You installed the
ocCLI.
Procedure
To change an
Externalscoped Ingress Controller toInternal, enter the following command:$ oc -n openshift-ingress-operator patch ingresscontrollers/default --type=merge --patch='{"spec":{"endpointPublishingStrategy":{"type":"LoadBalancerService","loadBalancer":{"scope":"Internal"}}}}'To check the status of the Ingress Controller, enter the following command:
$ oc -n openshift-ingress-operator get ingresscontrollers/default -o yaml
The
Progressingstatus condition indicates whether you must take further action. For example, the status condition can indicate that you need to delete the service by entering the following command:$ oc -n openshift-ingress delete services/router-default
If you delete the service, the Ingress Operator recreates it as
Internal.
7.1.2. Configuring the Ingress Controller endpoint publishing scope to External
When a cluster administrator installs a new cluster without specifying that the cluster is private, the default Ingress Controller is created with a scope set to External.
The Ingress Controller’s scope can be configured to be Internal during installation or after, and cluster administrators can change an Internal Ingress Controller to External.
On some platforms, it is necessary to delete and recreate the service.
Changing the scope can cause disruption to Ingress traffic, potentially for several minutes. This applies to platforms where it is necessary to delete and recreate the service, because the procedure can cause OpenShift Container Platform to deprovision the existing service load balancer, provision a new one, and update DNS.
