Add Metal LB addon #7308

Mar 29, 2020 · 2020-03-29T03:42:42Z

This PR configures Metal LB for an ARP based Load Balancer in local network.
This addon was verified with both Hyper-V and KVM driver.

Before using the addons, you may need to use minikube ip to get the details for the subnet to find out which IP addresses can be used for the LB to avoid IP address collision.

$ minikube ip 192.168.39.225

You may then use the following command to configure and enable the addon.

$ minikube addons configure metallb -- Enter Load Balancer Start IP: 192.168.39.100 -- Enter Load Balancer End IP: 192.168.39.200 ✅ metallb was successfully configured $ ./minikube addons enable metallb ✅ The 'metallb' addon is enabled

Then you may create a service with type LoadBalancer.

--- apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: nginx namespace: default labels: app: nginx spec: ports: - name: http port: 80 protocol: TCP targetPort: 80 selector: app: nginx type: LoadBalancer

Eventually the service will obtain an IP.

$ kubectl get service NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP 117m nginx LoadBalancer 10.103.15.133 192.168.39.100 80:30063/TCP 113m

You may access the External IP on your host.

$ curl 192.168.39.100:80 <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <... </html>

Hi @laozc. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes/test-infra repository.

Addon looks good.

I'm going to need some time to think about where the new flags go. It doesn't feel right to have an addon specific flag in "start".

Could the value be auto-configured or attached to the addon or config command somehow?

Mar 29, 2020 · 2020-03-29T04:53:48Z

It would be difficult to detect the right values for the load balancer IP since it may vary in the user's own network environment.
Removing those flags from start should be fine as long as the user uses configure to set the start/end IP.

medyagh · 2020-03-29T05:02:43Z

I have been thinking about metallb for ingress or load balancer ( alternative to tunnel)

@laozc do you mind cleariying which driver have you tested this add-on with ?
And does it work on docker driver on linux and also docker driver on macOs

Mar 29, 2020 · 2020-03-29T05:19:36Z

I'm testing it with Hyper-V and KVM drivers and both work fine.
You can access the assigned service IP without tunneling since the service IP is bound to the MAC address by Metal LB.
I haven't done any test on macOS nor the docker driver yet and not sure if it would work on these scenarios.

medyagh · 2020-03-29T05:44:42Z

do u mind also putting an example of the metal lb in the PR description ?

and how would this be different than our current minikube tunnel command ?

Mar 30, 2020 · 2020-03-30T03:28:30Z

The major change is that you don't need to run minikube tunnel.
Metal LB sets the ARP table for the exposed service to ensure the service IP is accessible from your machine.

You may check on the updated PR description.

tstromberg

Instead of adding more start flags, is it possible to change this PR to use minikube addons configure metallb? See registry-creds as an example.

(edit: nevermind, I see you have now done that!)
