KITES is a plugin of kubernetes-playground.

Requirements

• kubernetes-playground.

Install guide

Kites must be located in the ext/kites folder of a kubernetes-playground.

    cd kubernetes-playground/ext/
    git clone https://github.com/netgroup/kites

Examples

As described here, if you want to test a different CNI plugin, first need to run:

    vagrant provision --provision-with cleanup
    vagrant provision --provision-with mount-shared

Execute tests on Calico with IPIP overlay

1. Enable Calico CNI and select IPIP encapsulation from the env.yaml:

    cd kubernetes-playground/
    sed -i 's/no-cni-plugin: true/no-cni-plugin: false/g' env.yaml
    sed -i 's/flannel: true/flannel: false/g' env.yaml
    sed -i 's/weavenet: true/weavenet: false/g' env.yaml
    sed -i 's/calico: false/calico: true/g' env.yaml
    sed -i 's/CALICO_IPV4POOL_IPIP: false/CALICO_IPV4POOL_IPIP: true/g' env.yaml
    sed -i 's/CALICO_IPV4POOL_VXLAN: true/CALICO_IPV4POOL_VXLAN: false/g' env.yaml

2. Vagrant quick-setup with CALICO IPIP

    vagrant provision --provision-with quick-setup

3. Start tests with Calico IPIP

   • Start test with all default options

       vagrant ssh k8s-master-1.k8s-play.local -- -t 'cd /vagrant/ext/kites/scripts/linux/ && ./kites.sh --cni calicoIPIP --nodes 2'

   • Start test for TCP with IPv6

       vagrant ssh k8s-master-1.k8s-play.local -- -t 'cd /vagrant/ext/kites/scripts/linux/ && ./kites.sh --cni calicoIPIP --config -6 --nodes 2'
