How to use multus-cni?

Prerequisite

Kubelet must be configured to run with the CNI network plugin. Edit /etc/kubernetes/kubelet file and add --network-plugin=cni flags in KUBELET\_OPTS as shown below:

KUBELET_OPTS="...
--network-plugin-dir=/etc/cni/net.d
--network-plugin=cni
"

Install multus

You could copy binary directory or could use daemonset yaml in multus repository.

  • copy multus binary

Copy multus binary into CNI binary directory, usually /opt/cni/bin.

# Execute following commands at all Kubernetes nodes (i.e. master and minions)
$ cp multus /opt/cni/bin
  • use daemonset

As Quickstart, you could apply as such:

# Execute following command at Kubernetes master
$ cat ./images/{multus-daemonset.yml,flannel-daemonset.yml} | kubectl apply -f -

Set up conf file in /etc/cni/net.d/

You put CNI config file in /etc/cni/net.d. Kubernetes CNI runtime uses the alphabetically first file in the directory. ("Note1", "Note2" are just comments, you can remove them at your configuration)

# Execute following commands at all Kubernetes nodes (i.e. master and minions)
$ mkdir -p /etc/cni/net.d
$ cat >/etc/cni/net.d/30-multus.conf <<EOF
{
  "name": "multus-cni-network",
  "type": "multus",
  "readinessindicatorfile": "/var/run/flannel/subnet.env",
  "delegates": [
    {
      "Note1": "This is example, wrote your CNI config in delegates",
      "Note2": "If you use flannel, you also need to run flannel daemonset before!",
      "type": "flannel",
      "name": "flannel.1",
      "delegate": {
        "isDefaultGateway": true
      }
    }
  ],
  "kubeconfig": "/etc/cni/net.d/multus.d/multus.kubeconfig"
}
EOF

For the detail, please take a look into Configuration Reference

You can use "clusterNetwork"/"defaultNetworks" instead of "delegates", see for the detail

As above config, you need to set "kubeconfig" in the config file for NetworkAttachmentDefinition(CRD).

Which network will be used for "Pod IP"?

In case of "delegates", the first delegates network will be used for "Pod IP". Otherwise, "clusterNetwork" will be used for "Pod IP".

Create ServiceAccount, ClusterRole and its binding

Create resources for multus to access CRD objects as folloiwng command:

# Execute following commands at Kubernetes master
$ cat <<EOF | kubectl create -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: multus
  namespace: kube-system
---
kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1beta1
metadata:
  name: multus
rules:
  - apiGroups: ["k8s.cni.cncf.io"]
    resources:
      - '*'
    verbs:
      - '*'
  - apiGroups:
      - ""
    resources:
      - pods
      - pods/status
    verbs:
      - get
      - update
---
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1beta1
metadata:
  name: multus
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: multus
subjects:
- kind: ServiceAccount
  name: multus
  namespace: kube-system
EOF

Set up kubeconfig file

Create kubeconfig at master node as following commands:

# Execute following command at Kubernetes master
$ mkdir -p /etc/cni/multus.d
$ SERVICEACCOUNT_CA=$(kubectl get secrets -n=kube-system -o json | jq -r '.items[]|select(.metadata.annotations."kubernetes.io/service-account.name"=="multus")| .data."ca.crt"')
$ SERVICEACCOUNT_TOKEN=$(kubectl get secrets -n=kube-system -o json | jq -r '.items[]|select(.metadata.annotations."kubernetes.io/service-account.name"=="multus")| .data.token' | base64 -d )
$ KUBERNETES_SERVICE_PROTO=$(kubectl get all -o json | jq -r .items[0].spec.ports[0].name)
$ KUBERNETES_SERVICE_HOST=$(kubectl get all -o json | jq -r .items[0].spec.clusterIP)
$ KUBERNETES_SERVICE_PORT=$(kubectl get all -o json | jq -r .items[0].spec.ports[0].port)
$ cat > /etc/cni/net.d/multus.d/multus.kubeconfig <<EOF
# Kubeconfig file for Multus CNI plugin.

kind: Config
clusters:

  cluster:

    certificate-authority-data: ${SERVICEACCOUNT_CA}
users:
- name: multus
  user:
    token: "${SERVICEACCOUNT_TOKEN}"
contexts:
- name: multus-context
  context:
    cluster: local
    user: multus
current-context: multus-context
EOF

Copy /etc/cni/net.d/multus.d/multus.kubeconfig into other Kubernetes nodes Note: Recommend to exec 'chmod 600 /etc/cni/net.d/multus.d/multus.kubeconfig' to keep secure

$ scp /etc/cni/net.d/multus.d/multus.kubeconfig ...

Setup CRDs (daemonset automatically does)

If you use daemonset to install multus, skip this section and go to "Create network attachment"

Create CRD definition in Kubernetes as following command at master node:

# Execute following command at Kubernetes master
$ cat <<EOF | kubectl create -f -
apiVersion: apiextensions.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: CustomResourceDefinition
metadata:
  name: network-attachment-definitions.k8s.cni.cncf.io
spec:
  group: k8s.cni.cncf.io
  version: v1
  scope: Namespaced
  names:
    plural: network-attachment-definitions
    singular: network-attachment-definition
    kind: NetworkAttachmentDefinition
    shortNames:
    - net-attach-def
  validation:
    openAPIV3Schema:
      properties:

NetworkAttachmentDefinition with CNI config file:

If NetworkAttachmentDefinition has no spec, multus find a file in defaultConfDir ('/etc/cni/multus/net.d', with same name in the 'name' field of CNI config.
