4.10. Known firewall issue
-
To avoid breaking traffic flows with a firewall reload or restart, execute firewall commands before starting RHEL. The CNI driver in MicroShift makes use of iptable rules for some traffic flows, such as those using the NodePort service. The iptable rules are generated and inserted by the CNI driver, but are deleted when the firewall reloads or restarts. The absence of the iptable rules breaks traffic flows. If firewall commands have to be executed after MicroShift is running, manually restart
ovnkube-masterpod in theopenshift-ovn-kubernetesnamespace to reset the rules controlled by the CNI driver.
