Kubernetes Dashboard

Kubernetes Dashboard is a general purpose, web-based UI for Kubernetes clusters. It allows users to manage applications running in the cluster and troubleshoot them, as well as manage the cluster itself.

Usage

It is likely that Dashboard is already installed on your cluster. To access it navigate in your browser to the following URL: https://<kubernetes-master>/ui.

If you find that you’re not able to access the Dashboard you can install and open the latest stable release by running the following commands:

kubectl create -f https://rawgit.com/kubernetes/dashboard/master/src/deploy/kubernetes-dashboard.yaml

And then navigate to https://<kubernetes-master>/ui

If it asks password, use $ kubectl config view to find it.

Alternative Usage

Alternatively, you may access the UI via the Service Proxy. This is useful if you have a kubectl configured with access to the cluster, but lack password credentials for use in browser:

kubectl proxy

This will make the dashboard available at http://localhost:8001/ui

This will only be available from the machine where the command is executed, but you can see kubectl proxy --help for more options.
