Unable to connect to k8s cluster using master/worker IP

465 views Asked by At

I am trying to install a Kubernetes cluster with one master node and two worker nodes.

I acquired 3 VMs for this purpose running on Ubuntu 21.10. In the master node, I installed kubeadm:1.21.4, kubectl:1.21.4, kubelet:1.21.4 and docker-ce:20.4.

I followed this guide to install the cluster. The only difference was in my init command where I did not mention the --control-plane-endpoint. I used calico CNI v3.19.1 and docker for CRI Runtime.

After I installed the cluster, I deployed minio pod and exposed it as a NodePort. The pod got deployed in the worker node (10.72.12.52) and my master node IP is 10.72.12.51). For the first two hours, I am able to access the login page via all three IPs (10.72.12.51:30981, 10.72.12.52:30981, 10.72.13.53:30981). However, after two hours, I lost access to the service via 10.72.12.51:30981 and 10.72.13.53:30981. Now I am only able to access the service from the node on which it is running (10.72.12.52).

I have disabled the firewall and added calico.conf file inside /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d with the following content:

[keyfile]
unmanaged-devices=interface-name:cali*;interface-name:tunl*;interface-name:vxlan.calico

What am I missing in the setup that might cause this issue?

As mentioned by @AbhinavSharma the problem was solved by switching from Calico to Flannel CNI.
