In this lab you will deploy the DNS add-on which provides DNS based service discovery to applications running inside the Kubernetes cluster.
Deploy the kube-dns
cluster add-on:
kubectl create -f https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/kube-dns.yaml
output
serviceaccount "kube-dns" created
configmap "kube-dns" created
service "kube-dns" created
deployment "kube-dns" created
List the pods created by the kube-dns
deployment:
kubectl get pods -l k8s-app=kube-dns -n kube-system
output
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
kube-dns-3097350089-gq015 3/3 Running 0 20s
kube-dns-3097350089-q64qc 3/3 Running 0 20s
Create a busybox
deployment:
kubectl run busybox --image=busybox --command -- sleep 3600
List the pod created by the busybox
deployment:
kubectl get pods -l run=busybox
output
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
busybox-2125412808-mt2vb 1/1 Running 0 15s
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
