Deploying the Cluster DNS Add-on

In this lab you will deploy the DNS add-on which is required for every Kubernetes cluster. Without the DNS add-on the following things will not work:

• DNS based service discovery
• DNS lookups from containers running in pods

Cluster DNS Add-on

Create the kubedns service:

kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-the-hard-way/master/services/kubedns.yaml

Verification

kubectl --namespace=kube-system get svc

NAME       CLUSTER-IP   EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)         AGE
kube-dns   10.32.0.10   <none>        53/UDP,53/TCP   5s

Create the kubedns deployment:

kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-the-hard-way/master/deployments/kubedns.yaml

Verification

kubectl --namespace=kube-system get pods

NAME                           READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
kube-dns-v19-965658604-c8g5d   3/3       Running   0          49s
kube-dns-v19-965658604-zwl3g   3/3       Running   0          49s
