Chapter 8. Postinstallation network configuration

Procedure

1. Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

2. Generate the default project template:

   $ oc adm create-bootstrap-project-template -o yaml > template.yaml

3. Use a text editor to modify the generated template.yaml file by adding objects or modifying existing objects.

4. The project template must be created in the openshift-config namespace. Load your modified template:

   $ oc create -f template.yaml -n openshift-config

5. Edit the project configuration resource using the web console or CLI.

   • Using the web console:

     1. Navigate to the Administration Cluster Settings page.
     2. Click Configuration to view all configuration resources.
     3. Find the entry for Project and click Edit YAML.

   • Using the CLI:

     1. Edit the project.config.openshift.io/cluster resource:

        $ oc edit project.config.openshift.io/cluster

6. Update the spec section to include the projectRequestTemplate and name parameters, and set the name of your uploaded project template. The default name is project-request.

   Project configuration resource with custom project template

   apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
   kind: Project
   metadata:
   # ...
   spec:
     projectRequestTemplate:
       name: <template_name>
   # ...

7. After you save your changes, create a new project to verify that your changes were successfully applied.

Procedure

1. Edit the default template for a new project by running the following command:

   $ oc edit template <project_template> -n openshift-config

   Replace <project_template> with the name of the default template that you configured for your cluster. The default template name is project-request.

2. In the template, add each NetworkPolicy object as an element to the objects parameter. The objects parameter accepts a collection of one or more objects.

   In the following example, the objects parameter collection includes several NetworkPolicy objects.

   objects:
   - apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
     kind: NetworkPolicy
     metadata:
       name: allow-from-same-namespace
     spec:
       podSelector: {}
       ingress:
       - from:
         - podSelector: {}
   - apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
     kind: NetworkPolicy
     metadata:
       name: allow-from-openshift-ingress
     spec:
       ingress:
       - from:
         - namespaceSelector:
             matchLabels:
               network.openshift.io/policy-group: ingress
       podSelector: {}
       policyTypes:
       - Ingress
   - apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
     kind: NetworkPolicy
     metadata:
       name: allow-from-kube-apiserver-operator
     spec:
       ingress:
       - from:
         - namespaceSelector:
             matchLabels:
               kubernetes.io/metadata.name: openshift-kube-apiserver-operator
           podSelector:
             matchLabels:
               app: kube-apiserver-operator
       policyTypes:
       - Ingress
   ...

3. Optional: Create a new project to confirm that your network policy objects are created successfully by running the following commands:

   1. Create a new project:

      $ oc new-project <project> 1

      1

      Replace <project> with the name for the project you are creating.

   2. Confirm that the network policy objects in the new project template exist in the new project:

      $ oc get networkpolicy
      NAME                           POD-SELECTOR   AGE
      allow-from-openshift-ingress   <none>         7s
      allow-from-same-namespace      <none>         7s
