- Provides a DNS service to be used by pods within the network.
- Configures containers to use the DNS service to perform DNS lookups for example
- You can access services using DNS names assigned to them.
- You can access other pods using DNS names
In this lab you will deploy the DNS add-on which provides DNS based service discovery, backed by CoreDNS, to applications running inside the Kubernetes cluster.
Deploying the DNS Cluster Add-on In this lab you will deploy the DNS add-on which provides DNS based service discovery, backed by CoreDNS, to applications running inside the Kubernetes cluster. The DNS Cluster Add-on
Deploy the coredns
cluster add-on:
kubectl apply -f https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/coredns-1.8.yaml
output
serviceaccount/coredns created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/system:coredns created
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/system:coredns created
configmap/coredns created
deployment.apps/coredns created
service/kube-dns created
List the pods created by the kube-dns
deployment:
kubectl get pods -l k8s-app=kube-dns -n kube-system
it take 3 min then the pods will up
output
coredns-8494f9c688-j97h2 1/1 Running 5 3m31s
coredns-8494f9c688-wjn4n 1/1 Running 1 3m31s
Create a busybox
deployment:
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox:1.28 --command -- sleep 3600
List the pod created by the busybox
deployment:
kubectl get pods -l run=busybox
output
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
busybox 1/1 Running 0 3s
Retrieve the full name of the busybox
pod:
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l run=busybox -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}")
Execute a DNS lookup for the kubernetes
service inside the busybox
pod:
kubectl exec -ti $POD_NAME -- nslookup kubernetes
output
Server: 10.32.0.10
Address 1: 10.32.0.10 kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local
Name: kubernetes
Address 1: 10.32.0.1 kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local
