Network Policy Introduction
A network policy is a resource provided by Kubernetes to define the Pod-based network isolation policy. It specifies whether a group of Pods can communicate with other groups of Pods and other network endpoints. Scenarios
In TKE, Pod Networking is implemented by a high-performance Pod network based on the VPC at the IaaS layer, and service proxy is provided by the ipvs and iptables modes supported by kube-proxy. TKE provides network isolation through the Network Policy add-on.
Enabling NetworkPolicy in TKE
The NetworkPolicy add-on is available for TKE now. You can install it with a few steps. For directions, see Network Policy. NetworkPolicy Configuration Example
Note:
The apiVersion of the resource object varies based on the cluster Kubernetes version. You can run the command kubectl api-versions
to view the apiVersion of the current resource object.
The Pods in the nsa namespace can access one another and cannot be accessed by any other Pods.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
name: npa
namespace: nsa
spec:
ingress:

podSelector: {}
policyTypes:

The Pods in nsa namespace cannot be accessed by any Pods.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:

namespace: nsa
spec:

policyTypes:

Pods in the nsa namespace can only be accessed by Pods in the namespace with the app: nsb tag on port 6379 or the TCP port.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy

Pods in the nsa namespace can access port 5978 or the TCP port of the network endpoint with a CIDR block of 14.215.0.0/16 but cannot access any other network endpoints. This method can be used to configure an allowlist to allow in-cluster services to access external network endpoints.

Pods in the default namespace can only be accessed by the network endpoint with a CIDR block of 14.215.0.0/16 on port 80 or the TCP port and cannot be accessed by any other network endpoints.

Feature Testing of NetworkPolicy
Run the K8s community's e2e test for NetworkPolicy
. The results are as follows: |
should support a default-deny policy | |
should enforce policy to allow traffic from pods within server namespace based on PodSelector | |
should enforce policy to allow traffic only from a different namespace, based on NamespaceSelector | |
should enforce policy based on PodSelector with MatchExpressions | |
should enforce policy based on NamespaceSelector with MatchExpressions | |
should enforce policy based on PodSelector or NamespaceSelector | |
should enforce policy based on PodSelector and NamespaceSelector | |
should enforce policy to allow traffic only from a pod in a different namespace based on PodSelector and NamespaceSelector | |
should enforce policy based on Ports | |
should enforce multiple, stacked policies with overlapping podSelectors | |
should support allow-all policy | |
should allow ingress access on one named port | |
should allow ingress access from namespace on one named port | |
should allow egress access on one named port | |
should enforce updated policy | |
should allow ingress access from updated namespace | |
should allow ingress access from updated pod | |
should deny ingress access to updated pod | |
should enforce egress policy allowing traffic to a server in a different namespace based on PodSelector and NamespaceSelector | |
should enforce multiple ingress policies with ingress allow-all policy taking precedence | |
should enforce multiple egress policies with egress allow-all policy taking precedence | |
should stop enforcing policies after they are deleted | |
should allow egress access to server in CIDR block | |
should enforce except clause while egress access to server in CIDR block | |
should enforce policies to check ingress and egress policies can be controlled independently based on PodSelector | |
Feature Testing of NetworkPolicy (legacy)
A large number of Nginx services are deployed in the Kubernetes cluster, and a fixed service is measured with ApacheBench (ab). The QPS values in Kube-router-enabled and Kube-router-disabled scenarios are compared to measure the performance loss caused by Kube-router.
Test environment
VM quantity: 100
VM configuration: 2 CPU cores, 4 GB memory.
VM OS: Ubuntu
Kubernetes version: 1.10.5
kube-router version: 0.2.0
Test process
1. Deploy one service corresponding to two Pods (Nginx) as the test group.
2. Deploy 1,000 services with each of them corresponding to 2/6/8 Pods (Nginx) as the interference group.
3. Deploy a NetworkPolicy rule to ensure that all Pods are selected to produce a sufficient number of iptables rules.
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
name: npd
namespace: default
spec:
ingress:
- from:
- ipBlock:
cidr: 14.215.0.0/16
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 9090
- from:
- ipBlock:
cidr: 14.215.0.0/16
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 8080
- from:
- ipBlock:
cidr: 14.215.0.0/16
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 80
podSelector: {}
policyTypes:
- Ingress
4. Perform an A/B test to test the service in the test group and record the QPS.The following figure shows the obtained performance curve.
In the legend:
1000service2000pod, 1000service6000pod, and 1000service8000pod are the performances when kube-route is not enabled for Pod.
1000service2000pod-kube-route, 1000service6000pod-kube-route, and 1000service8000pod-kube-route are the performances when kube-route is enabled for Pod.
X axis: A/B concurrency
Y axis: QPS
Test conclusion
As the number of Pods increases from 2,000 to 8,000, the performance when Kube-router is enabled is 10% to 20% lower than when it is disabled.
Notes
Kube-router versions provided by Tencent Cloud
The NetworkPolicy add-on is based on the community’s Kube-Router project. During the development of this add-on, the Tencent Cloud PaaS team actively built a community, provided features, and fixed bugs. The PRs we committed that were incorporated into the community are listed as follows:
