Kube Static Egress Controller

Kube-static-egress-controller provides static IPs for cluster egress calls to defined target networks.

Kube-static-egress-controller watches Kubernetes Configmaps with Label selector egress=static in all namespaces to get target networks to route to with static IPs. It changes the infrastructure this to provide to the cluster.

This project enables teams to have static IPs for egress traffic to user defined target network. Deployers can enable this by creating a configmap with label egress=static in any namespace and as many configmaps they want. They can choose if this should be part of their deployment or a global configuration. You can also choose to select a namespace to limit the usage to a given namespace.

How it works

watch configmap by label selector and send an event with the Egress configuration to the controller loop.
Store a cache of all Egress configurations observed in the cluster.
Pass the stored cache to the provider to ensure the configuration is applied.

Example

The following example configmap shows how you can specify 2 target networks that will get routed with static egress IPs. Namespace, name and data key value pairs can be chosen by the user. Required is that it is a configmap with labels egress: static.

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: egress-t1
  namespace: default
  labels:
    egress: static
data:
  service-provider1: 192.112.1.0/21
  google-dns: 8.8.8.8/32

Provider

AWS

Creates, updates and deletes infrastructure using CloudFormation. The infrastructure it manages is:

AWS::EC2::RouteTable
AWS::EC2::Route
AWS::EC2::NatGateway
AWS::EC2::SubnetRouteTableAssociation
AWS::EC2::EIP
AWS::EC2::Subnet

It uses your default VPC (call ec2.DescribeVpcs) and derives from it the InternetGateway. It gets routeTables via filter vpcid and --tag-key=AvailabilityZone. The Tag value will be the routeTableID of your routeTable. This tag has to be specified by the user for each routing table in order to change the routes for the worker nodes.

--aws-nat-cidr-block=172.15.64.0/28 is used as Subnet, you have to have the same number of Subnets as you use AZs to apply to your NAT GWs
--aws-az=eu-west-1a is used to create NAT GW and EIP in the specified AZ

IAM role / Policy

The IAM role attached to your POD has to have the following policy:

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
          {
            "Action": "ec2:DisassociateRouteTable",

Deployment

Replace iam.amazonaws.com/role with your role created to assign the policy from above. You should also run kube2iam on that node to make the annotation work.

apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: kube-static-egress-controller
  namespace: kube-system
spec:
  replicas: 1
  template:
    metadata:

        env:

          value: eu-west-1
        resources:
