Services & Static IPs

Management of Service IPs and External Services.

Static Service IPs

See Service ClusterIP allocation.

Every Service ClusterIP must be unique. The allocation strategy uses a dynamic upper band by default. Users can safely use static allocations in the lower band with low risk of collision.

Natron Range Example: 10.96.0.0/16

• Kubernetes API: 10.96.0.1
• Kube DNS: 10.96.0.10
• Static Range: 10.96.0.1 - 10.96.1.0 (Recommended for static assignment)

External Services

To use Ingress as a proxy for endpoints outside of Kubernetes (Services without Selectors).

1. Create EndpointSlice (or Endpoints): Define the external IP and port.
2. Create Service: Must match the Endpoint name and port name.
3. Create Ingress: Point to the Service.

See Services without selectors for details.
