Chapter 15. Tutorial: Assigning a consistent egress IP for external traffic

download PDF

You can assign a consistent IP address for traffic that leaves your cluster such as security groups which require an IP-based configuration to meet security standards.

By default, Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA) uses the OVN-Kubernetes container network interface (CNI) to assign random IP addresses from a pool. This can make configuring security lockdowns unpredictable or open.

See Configuring an egress IP address for more information.

Objectives

  • Learn how to configure a set of predictable IP addresses for egress cluster traffic.

Prerequisites

15.1. Setting your environment variables

  • Set your environment variables by running the following command:

    Note

    Replace the value of the ROSA_MACHINE_POOL_NAME variable to target a different machine pool. 

    $ export ROSA_CLUSTER_NAME=$(oc get infrastructure cluster -o=jsonpath="{.status.infrastructureName}"  | sed 's/-[a-z0-9]\{5\}$//')
$ export ROSA_MACHINE_POOL_NAME=worker

15.2. Ensuring capacity

The number of IP addresses assigned to each node is limited for each public cloud provider.

  • Verify sufficient capacity by running the following command: 

    $ oc get node -o json | \
    jq '.items[] |
        {
            "name": .metadata.name,
            "ips": (.status.addresses | map(select(.type == "InternalIP") | .address)),
            "capacity": (.metadata.annotations."cloud.network.openshift.io/egress-ipconfig" | fromjson[] | .capacity.ipv4)
        }'

    Example output

    ---
{
  "name": "ip-10-10-145-88.ec2.internal",
  "ips": [
    "10.10.145.88"
  ],
  "capacity": 14
}
{
  "name": "ip-10-10-154-175.ec2.internal",
  "ips": [
    "10.10.154.175"
  ],
  "capacity": 14
}
---

15.3. Creating the egress IP rules

  1. Before creating the egress IP rules, identify which egress IPs you will use.

    Note

    The egress IPs that you select should exist as a part of the subnets in which the worker nodes are provisioned.

  2. Optional: Reserve the egress IPs that you requested to avoid conflicts with the AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service.

    Request explicit IP reservations on the AWS documentation for CIDR reservations page.

15.4. Assigning an egress IP to a namespace

  1. Create a new project by running the following command: 

    $ oc new-project demo-egress-ns

  2. Create the egress rule for all pods within the namespace by running the following command: 

    $ cat <<EOF | oc apply -f -
apiVersion: k8s.ovn.org/v1
kind: EgressIP
metadata:
  name: demo-egress-ns
spec:
  # NOTE: these egress IPs are within the subnet range(s) in which my worker nodes
  #       are deployed.
  egressIPs:
    - 10.10.100.253
    - 10.10.150.253
    - 10.10.200.253
  namespaceSelector:
    matchLabels:
      kubernetes.io/metadata.name: demo-egress-ns
EOF

15.5. Assigning an egress IP to a pod

  1. Create a new project by running the following command: 

    $ oc new-project demo-egress-pod

  2. Create the egress rule for the pod by running the following command:

    Note

    spec.namespaceSelector is a mandatory field. 

    $ cat <<EOF | oc apply -f -
apiVersion: k8s.ovn.org/v1
kind: EgressIP
metadata:
  name: demo-egress-pod
spec:
  # NOTE: these egress IPs are within the subnet range(s) in which my worker nodes
  #       are deployed.
  egressIPs:
    - 10.10.100.254
    - 10.10.150.254
    - 10.10.200.254
  namespaceSelector:
    matchLabels:
      kubernetes.io/metadata.name: demo-egress-pod
  podSelector:
    matchLabels:
      run: demo-egress-pod
EOF

15.5.1. Labeling the nodes

  1. Obtain your pending egress IP assignments by running the following command: 

    $ oc get egressips

    Example output

    NAME              EGRESSIPS       ASSIGNED NODE   ASSIGNED EGRESSIPS
demo-egress-ns    10.10.100.253
demo-egress-pod   10.10.100.254

    The egress IP rule that you created only applies to nodes with the k8s.ovn.org/egress-assignable label. Make sure that the label is only on a specific machine pool.

  2. Assign the label to your machine pool using the following command:

    Warning

    If you rely on node labels for your machine pool, this command will replace those labels. Be sure to input your desired labels into the --labels field to ensure your node labels remain. 

    $ rosa update machinepool ${ROSA_MACHINE_POOL_NAME} \
  --cluster="${ROSA_CLUSTER_NAME}" \
  --labels "k8s.ovn.org/egress-assignable="

15.5.2. Reviewing the egress IPs

  • Review the egress IP assignments by running the following command: 

    $ oc get egressips

    Example output

    NAME              EGRESSIPS       ASSIGNED NODE                   ASSIGNED EGRESSIPS
demo-egress-ns    10.10.100.253   ip-10-10-156-122.ec2.internal   10.10.150.253
demo-egress-pod   10.10.100.254   ip-10-10-156-122.ec2.internal   10.10.150.254

15.6. Verification

15.6.1. Deploying a sample application

To test the egress IP rule, create a service that is restricted to the egress IP addresses which we have specified. This simulates an external service that is expecting a small subset of IP addresses.

  1. Run the echoserver command to replicate a request: 

    $ oc -n default run demo-service --image=gcr.io/google_containers/echoserver:1.4

  2. Expose the pod as a service and limit the ingress to the egress IP addresses you specified by running the following command: 

    $ cat <<EOF | oc apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: demo-service
  namespace: default
  annotations:
    service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-scheme: "internal"
    service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-internal: "true"
spec:
  selector:
    run: demo-service
  ports:
    - port: 80
      targetPort: 8080
  type: LoadBalancer
  externalTrafficPolicy: Local
  # NOTE: this limits the source IPs that are allowed to connect to our service.  It
  #       is being used as part of this demo, restricting connectivity to our egress
  #       IP addresses only.
  # NOTE: these egress IPs are within the subnet range(s) in which my worker nodes
  #       are deployed.
  loadBalancerSourceRanges:
    - 10.10.100.254/32
    - 10.10.150.254/32
    - 10.10.200.254/32
    - 10.10.100.253/32
    - 10.10.150.253/32
    - 10.10.200.253/32
EOF

  3. Retrieve the load balancer hostname and save it as an environment variable by running the following command: 

    $ export LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME=$(oc get svc -n default demo-service -o json | jq -r '.status.loadBalancer.ingress[].hostname')

15.6.2. Testing the namespace egress

  1. Start an interactive shell to test the namespace egress rule: 

    $ oc run \
  demo-egress-ns \
  -it \
  --namespace=demo-egress-ns \
  --env=LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME=$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME \
  --image=registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9/ubi -- \
  bash

  2. Send a request to the load balancer and ensure that you can successfully connect: 

    $ curl -s http://$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME

  3. Check the output for a successful connection:

    Note

    The client_address is the internal IP address of the load balancer not your egress IP. You can verify that you have configured the client address correctly by connecting with your service limited to .spec.loadBalancerSourceRanges.

    Example output

    CLIENT VALUES:
client_address=10.10.207.247
command=GET
real path=/
query=nil
request_version=1.1
request_uri=http://internal-a3e61de18bfca4a53a94a208752b7263-148284314.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com:8080/

SERVER VALUES:
server_version=nginx: 1.10.0 - lua: 10001

HEADERS RECEIVED:
accept=*/*
host=internal-a3e61de18bfca4a53a94a208752b7263-148284314.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com
user-agent=curl/7.76.1
BODY:
-no body in request-

  4. Exit the pod by running the following command: 

    $ exit

15.6.3. Testing the pod egress

  1. Start an interactive shell to test the pod egress rule: 

    $ oc run \
  demo-egress-pod \
  -it \
  --namespace=demo-egress-pod \
  --env=LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME=$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME \
  --image=registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9/ubi -- \
  bash

  2. Send a request to the load balancer by running the following command: 

    $ curl -s http://$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME

  3. Check the output for a successful connection:

    Note

    The client_address is the internal IP address of the load balancer not your egress IP. You can verify that you have configured the client address correctly by connecting with your service limited to .spec.loadBalancerSourceRanges.

    Example output

    CLIENT VALUES:
client_address=10.10.207.247
command=GET
real path=/
query=nil
request_version=1.1
request_uri=http://internal-a3e61de18bfca4a53a94a208752b7263-148284314.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com:8080/

SERVER VALUES:
server_version=nginx: 1.10.0 - lua: 10001

HEADERS RECEIVED:
accept=*/*
host=internal-a3e61de18bfca4a53a94a208752b7263-148284314.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com
user-agent=curl/7.76.1
BODY:
-no body in request-

  4. Exit the pod by running the following command: 

    $ exit

15.6.4. Optional: Testing blocked egress

  1. Optional: Test that the traffic is successfully blocked when the egress rules do not apply by running the following command: 

    $ oc run \
  demo-egress-pod-fail \
  -it \
  --namespace=demo-egress-pod \
  --env=LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME=$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME \
  --image=registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9/ubi -- \
  bash

  2. Send a request to the load balancer by running the following command: 

    $ curl -s http://$LOAD_BALANCER_HOSTNAME
  3. If the command is unsuccessful, egress is successfully blocked.

  4. Exit the pod by running the following command: 

    $ exit

15.7. Cleaning up your cluster

  1. Clean up your cluster by running the following commands: 

    $ oc delete svc demo-service -n default; \
$ oc delete pod demo-service -n default; \
$ oc delete project demo-egress-ns; \
$ oc delete project demo-egress-pod; \
$ oc delete egressip demo-egress-ns; \
$ oc delete egressip demo-egress-pod

  2. Clean up the assigned node labels by running the following command:

    Warning

    If you rely on node labels for your machine pool, this command replaces those labels. Input your desired labels into the --labels field to ensure your node labels remain. 

    $ rosa update machinepool ${ROSA_MACHINE_POOL_NAME} \
  --cluster="${ROSA_CLUSTER_NAME}" \
  --labels ""
