.. only:: not (epub or latex or html) WARNING: You are looking at unreleased Cilium documentation. Please use the official rendered version released here: http://docs.cilium.io
When managing pods in Kubernetes, Cilium will create a Custom Resource
Definition (CRD) of Kind CiliumEndpoint
. One CiliumEndpoint
is created
for each pod managed by Cilium, with the same name and in the same namespace.
The CiliumEndpoint
objects contain the same information as the json output
of cilium endpoint get
under the .status
field, but can be fetched for
all pods in the cluster. Adding the -o json
will export more information
about each endpoint. This includes the endpoint's labels, security identity and
the policy in effect on it.
For example:
kubectl get ciliumendpoints --all-namespaces NAMESPACE NAME AGE default app1-55d7944bdd-l7c8j 1h default app1-55d7944bdd-sn9xj 1h default app2 1h default app3 1h kube-system cilium-health-minikube 1h kube-system microscope 1h
Note
Each cilium-agent pod will create a CiliumEndpoint to represent its
own inter-agent health-check endpoint. These are not pods in
Kubernetes and are in the kube-system
namespace. They are named as
cilium-health-<node-name>
