|
## What are they?
|
|
|
|
An admission control plug-in is a piece of code that intercepts requests to the Kubernetes
|
|
API server prior to persistence of the object, but after the request is authenticated
|
|
and authorized. The plug-in code is in the API server process
|
|
and must be compiled into the binary in order to be used at this time.
|
|
|
|
Each admission control plug-in is run in sequence before a request is accepted into the cluster. If
|
|
any of the plug-ins in the sequence reject the request, the entire request is rejected immediately
|
|
and an error is returned to the end-user.
|
|
|
|
Admission control plug-ins may mutate the incoming object in some cases to apply system configured
|
|
defaults. In addition, admission control plug-ins may mutate related resources as part of request
|
|
processing to do things like increment quota usage.
|
|
|
|
## Why do I need them?
|
|
|
|
Many advanced features in Kubernetes require an admission control plug-in to be enabled in order
|
|
to properly support the feature. As a result, a Kubernetes API server that is not properly
|
|
configured with the right set of admission control plug-ins is an incomplete server and will not
|
|
support all the features you expect.
|
|
|
|
## How do I turn on an admission control plug-in?
|
|
|
|
The Kubernetes API server supports a flag, `admission-control` that takes a comma-delimited,
|
|
ordered list of admission control choices to invoke prior to modifying objects in the cluster.
|
|
|
|
## What does each plug-in do?
|
|
|
|
### AlwaysAdmit
|
|
|
|
Use this plugin by itself to pass-through all requests.
|
|
|
|
### AlwaysDeny
|
|
|
|
Rejects all requests. Used for testing.
|
|
|
|
### DenyExecOnPrivileged (deprecated)
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will intercept all requests to exec a command in a pod if that pod has a privileged container.
|
|
|
|
If your cluster supports privileged containers, and you want to restrict the ability of end-users to exec
|
|
commands in those containers, we strongly encourage enabling this plug-in.
|
|
|
|
This functionality has been merged into [DenyEscalatingExec](#denyescalatingexec).
|
|
|
|
### DenyEscalatingExec
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will deny exec and attach commands to pods that run with escalated privileges that
|
|
allow host access. This includes pods that run as privileged, have access to the host IPC namespace, and
|
|
have access to the host PID namespace.
|
|
|
|
If your cluster supports containers that run with escalated privileges, and you want to
|
|
restrict the ability of end-users to exec commands in those containers, we strongly encourage
|
|
enabling this plug-in.
|
|
|
|
### ServiceAccount
|
|
|
|
This plug-in implements automation for [serviceAccounts](../user-guide/service-accounts.md).
|
|
We strongly recommend using this plug-in if you intend to make use of Kubernetes `ServiceAccount` objects.
|
|
|
|
### SecurityContextDeny
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will deny any pod with a [SecurityContext](../user-guide/security-context.md) that defines options that were not available on the `Container`.
|
|
|
|
### ResourceQuota
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will observe the incoming request and ensure that it does not violate any of the constraints
|
|
enumerated in the `ResourceQuota` object in a `Namespace`. If you are using `ResourceQuota`
|
|
objects in your Kubernetes deployment, you MUST use this plug-in to enforce quota constraints.
|
|
|
|
See the [resourceQuota design doc](../design/admission_control_resource_quota.md) and the [example of Resource Quota](resourcequota/) for more details.
|
|
|
|
It is strongly encouraged that this plug-in is configured last in the sequence of admission control plug-ins. This is
|
|
so that quota is not prematurely incremented only for the request to be rejected later in admission control.
|
|
|
|
### LimitRanger
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will observe the incoming request and ensure that it does not violate any of the constraints
|
|
enumerated in the `LimitRange` object in a `Namespace`. If you are using `LimitRange` objects in
|
|
your Kubernetes deployment, you MUST use this plug-in to enforce those constraints. LimitRanger can also
|
|
be used to apply default resource requests to Pods that don't specify any; currently, the default LimitRanger
|
|
applies a 0.1 CPU requirement to all Pods in the `default` namespace.
|
|
|
|
See the [limitRange design doc](../design/admission_control_limit_range.md) and the [example of Limit Range](limitrange/) for more details.
|
|
|
|
### NamespaceExists (deprecated)
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will observe all incoming requests that attempt to create a resource in a Kubernetes `Namespace`
|
|
and reject the request if the `Namespace` was not previously created. We strongly recommend running
|
|
this plug-in to ensure integrity of your data.
|
|
|
|
The functionality of this admission controller has been merged into `NamespaceLifecycle`
|
|
|
|
### NamespaceAutoProvision (deprecated)
|
|
|
|
This plug-in will observe all incoming requests that attempt to create a resource in a Kubernetes `Namespace`
|
|
and create a new `Namespace` if one did not already exist previously.
|
|
|
|
We strongly recommend `NamespaceLifecycle` over `NamespaceAutoProvision`.
|
|
|
|
### NamespaceLifecycle
|
|
|
|
This plug-in enforces that a `Namespace` that is undergoing termination cannot have new objects created in it,
|
|
and ensures that requests in a non-existant `Namespace` are rejected.
|
|
|
|
A `Namespace` deletion kicks off a sequence of operations that remove all objects (pods, services, etc.) in that
|
|
namespace. In order to enforce integrity of that process, we strongly recommend running this plug-in.
|
|
|
|
## Is there a recommended set of plug-ins to use?
|
|
|
|
Yes.
|
|
|
|
For Kubernetes 1.0, we strongly recommend running the following set of admission control plug-ins (order matters):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
--admission-control=NamespaceLifecycle,LimitRanger,SecurityContextDeny,ServiceAccount,ResourceQuota
|
|
```
