Now, Pods on `cluster1` can ping, cURL, or otherwise make requests against Pods and Servives in `cluster2` and vice-versa.
Now, Pods on `cluster1` can ping, cURL, or otherwise make requests against Pods and Services in `cluster2` and vice-versa.
## Mirroring Services
At this point, Kilo has created a fully routable network between the two clusters.
However, as it stands the external Services can only be accessed by using their clusterIPs directly.
For example, a Pod in `cluster2` would need to use the URL `http://$CLUSTERIP_FROM_CLUSTER1` to make a request against a Service running in `cluster1`.
For example, a Pod in `cluster2` would need to use the URL `http://$CLUSTERIP_FROM_CLUSTER1` to make an HTTP request against a Service running in `cluster1`.
In other words, the Services are not yet Kubernetes-native.
We can easily change that by creating a Kubernetes Service in `cluster2` to mirror the Service in `cluster1`:
```shell
cat <<'EOF' | kubectl --kubeconfig $KUBECONFIG2 apply -f -
cat <<EOF | kubectl --kubeconfig $KUBECONFIG2 apply -f -
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service

Now, `important-service` can be used on `cluster2` just like any other Kubernetes Service.
Now, `important-service` can be used and discovered on `cluster2` just like any other Kubernetes Service.
That means that a Pod in `cluster2` could directly use the Kubernetes DNS name for the Service when making HTTP requests, for example: `http://important-service.default.svc.cluster.local`.
Notice that this mirroring is ad-hoc, requiring manual administration of each Service.
This process can be fully automated using [Service-Reflector](https://github.com/squat/service-reflector) to discover and mirror Kubernetes Services between connected clusters.
