Kubernetes : Configure Control Plane Node2025/05/20

Configure Multi Nodes Kubernetes Cluster.

This example is based on the environment like follows.

+----------------------+   +----------------------+
|  [ ctrl.srv.world ]  |   |   [ dlp.srv.world ]  |
|     Manager Node     |   |     Control Plane    |
+-----------+----------+   +-----------+----------+
        eth0|10.0.0.25             eth0|10.0.0.30
            |                          |
------------+--------------------------+-----------
            |                          |
        eth0|10.0.0.51             eth0|10.0.0.52
+-----------+----------+   +-----------+----------+
| [ node01.srv.world ] |   | [ node02.srv.world ] |
|     Worker Node#1    |   |     Worker Node#2    |
+----------------------+   +----------------------+

[1]

Configure pre-requirements on all Nodes, refer to here.

[2]

Configure initial setup on Control Plane Node.

For [control-plane-endpoint], specify the Hostname or IP address that is shared among the Kubernetes Cluster.
For the case proxying Kubernetes cluster with a Manager node like this example, specify Manager Node IP address.

For [apiserver-advertise-address], specify Control Plane Node IP address.

For [--pod-network-cidr] option, specify network which Pod Network uses.
There are some plugins for Pod Network. (refer to details below)

⇒ https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/networking/

On this example, it selects Calico.

[root@dlp ~]#

kubeadm init --control-plane-endpoint=10.0.0.25 --apiserver-advertise-address=10.0.0.30 --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16 --cri-socket=unix:///var/run/crio/crio.sock

[init] Using Kubernetes version: v1.31.9
[preflight] Running pre-flight checks
[preflight] Pulling images required for setting up a Kubernetes cluster
[preflight] This might take a minute or two, depending on the speed of your internet connection
[preflight] You can also perform this action beforehand using 'kubeadm config images pull'
[certs] Using certificateDir folder "/etc/kubernetes/pki"
[certs] Generating "ca" certificate and key
[certs] Generating "apiserver" certificate and key
[certs] apiserver serving cert is signed for DNS names [dlp.srv.world kubernetes kubernetes.default kubernetes.default.svc kubernetes.default.svc.cluster.local] and IPs [10.96.0.1 10.0.0.30 10.0.0.25]

Your Kubernetes control-plane has initialized successfully!

To start using your cluster, you need to run the following as a regular user:

  mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
  sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
  sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

Alternatively, if you are the root user, you can run:

  export KUBECONFIG=/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf

You should now deploy a pod network to the cluster.
Run "kubectl apply -f [podnetwork].yaml" with one of the options listed at:
  https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/cluster-administration/addons/

You can now join any number of control-plane nodes by copying certificate authorities
and service account keys on each node and then running the following as root:

  kubeadm join 10.0.0.25:6443 --token auf5ff.higaljd63wzh7j0i \
        --discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:f7ed0f751e3370eb32367ee7b38ec48c5e48a997ca6935045b573c3b57df5b3e \
        --control-plane

Then you can join any number of worker nodes by running the following on each as root:

kubeadm join 10.0.0.25:6443 --token auf5ff.higaljd63wzh7j0i \
        --discovery-token-ca-cert-hash sha256:f7ed0f751e3370eb32367ee7b38ec48c5e48a997ca6935045b573c3b57df5b3e

# transfrer authentication file for cluster admin to Manager Node with any user

[root@dlp ~]#

scp /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf centos@10.0.0.25:/tmp

centos@10.0.0.25's password:
admin.conf                                    100% 5645    20.7MB/s   00:00

[3]	Work on Manager Node. Configure Pod Network with Calico.

# set cluster admin user with a file you transferred from Control Plane
# if you set common user as cluster admin, login with it and run [sudo cp/chown ***]

[root@ctrl ~]#

mkdir -p $HOME/.kube

[root@ctrl ~]#

mv /tmp/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config

[root@ctrl ~]#

chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

[root@ctrl ~]#
