# Nodelocal DNS Cache
|
|
|
|
This addon runs a node-local-dns pod on all cluster nodes. The pod runs CoreDNS as the dns cache. It runs with `hostNetwork:True` and creates a dedicated dummy interface with a link local ip(169.254.20.10/32 by default) to listen for DNS queries. The cache instances connect to clusterDNS in case of cache misses.
|
|
|
|
Design details [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/keps/sig-network/0030-nodelocal-dns-cache.md)
|
|
|
|
## nodelocaldns addon template
|
|
|
|
This directory contains the addon config yaml - `nodelocaldns.yaml`
|
|
The variables will be substituted by the configure scripts when the yaml is copied into master.
|
|
To create a GCE cluster with nodelocaldns enabled, use the command:
|
|
`KUBE_ENABLE_NODELOCAL_DNS=true go run hack/e2e.go -v --up`
|
|
|
|
### Network policy and DNS connectivity
|
|
|
|
When running nodelocaldns addon on clusters using network policy, additional rules might be required to enable dns connectivity.
|
|
Using a namespace selector for dns egress traffic as shown [here](https://docs.projectcalico.org/v2.6/getting-started/kubernetes/tutorials/advanced-policy)
|
|
might not be enough since the node-local-dns pods run with `hostNetwork: True`
|
|
|
|
One way to enable connectivity from node-local-dns pods to clusterDNS ip is to use an ipBlock rule instead:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
spec:
|
|
egress:
|
|
- ports:
|
|
- port: 53
|
|
protocol: TCP
|
|
- port: 53
|
|
protocol: UDP
|
|
to:
|
|
- ipBlock:
|
|
cidr: <well-known clusterIP for DNS>/32
|
|
podSelector: {}
|
|
policyTypes:
|
|
- Ingress
|
|
- Egress
|
|
```
