TNGNET Cloud Private cluster
Private clusters in GKE are clusters in which nodes are segregated from inbound and outgoing traffic by assigning them only internal IP addresses.
Private Cluster Nodes & Endpoint
Cloud NAT
If restricting outgoing internet access is not a concern for your organization, use Google's Cloud NAT service to allow nodes in the private network to access the internet, enabling them to download the required images from Dockerhub and contact the Rancher management server.
Private registry
If restricting both incoming and outgoing traffic to nodes is a requirement, follow the air-gapped installation instructions to set up a private container image registry on the VPC where the cluster is going to be, allowing the cluster nodes to access and download the images they need to run the cluster agent.
Direct access
If the Rancher server is run on the same VPC as the cluster's control plane, it will have direct access to the control plane's private endpoint. The cluster nodes will need to have access to a private registry to download images as described above.
Public and private Clusters
Public Cluster
Public Cluster offers two different cluster accesses: Public and Private Cluster. A Public cluster doesn’t imply the cluster can be publicly managed. It means the Master and nodes IP are public.
TNGNET Cloud Private cluster
On the other hand, a Private cluster doesn’t assign public IP addresses to the nodes. It reduces the attack surface and the risk of compromising the workloads.
Networks and firewall rules
A VPC-native Cluster is required to configure our desired network components.
Defining private IP ranges
We first need to define private IP ranges for the nodes, services and pods. To do so, we define a subnetwork in our VPC network. A subnet in Google Cloud has a primary IP range, and optional secondary ranges (IP alias ranges).
Google Health Check
It is recommended to enable GooglePrivate Access, so Google services are reachable without going over the public internet.
Private Cluster endpoint
In the setup we define for this article, we choose to use a third option. We wrote Terraform code to create the private clusters with a public endpoint for the Master node.
Interested in a TNGNET Private Cluster Server?
-
For our use case, we'd like to set up a network with a private IP range (say, 10.128.0.0/16), and then set up a self-contained cluster within that network.
-
That would imply that every node in the cluster would have an IP address in that range, as would every load balancer, and that the Kubernetes API would ideally only be exposed in that network. This is known as a private topology.
-
As a result, if we establish a VPN connection to that network and configure the appropriate network routes.
