# Network Policies
|
|
|
|
Network policies allow specifying whether and how different groups of Pods running in a Kubernetes cluster can communicate with one another.
|
|
In other words, they can be used to control and limit the ingress and egress traffic to and from Pods.
|
|
Naturally, network policies can be used to restrict which WireGuard peers have access to which Pods and vice-versa.
|
|
Support for [Kubernetes network policies](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/) can be easily added to any cluster running Kilo by deploying a utility such as [kube-router](https://github.com/cloudnativelabs/kube-router).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
The following command adds network policy support by deploying kube-router to work alongside Kilo:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/squat/kilo/main/manifests/kube-router.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Network policies could now be deployed to the cluster.
|
|
Consider the following example scenarios.
|
|
|
|
### Deny All Ingress Except WireGuard
|
|
|
|
Imagine that an organization wants to limit access to a namespace to only allow traffic from the WireGuard VPN.
|
|
Access to a namespace could be limited to only accept ingress from a CIDR range with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
cat <<'EOF' | kubectl apply -f -
|
|
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: NetworkPolicy
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: deny-ingress-except-wireguard
|
|
spec:
|
|
podSelector: {}
|
|
policyTypes:
|
|
- Ingress
|
|
ingress:
|
|
- from:
|
|
- ipBlock:
|
|
cidr: 10.5.0.0/16 # The WireGuard mesh/s CIDR.
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deny Egress to WireGuard Peers
|
|
|
|
Consider the case where Pods running in one namespace should not have access to resources in the WireGuard mesh, e.g. because the Pods are potentially untrusted.
|
|
In this scenario, a policy to restrict access to the WireGuard peers could be created with:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
cat <<'EOF' | kubectl apply -f -
|
|
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
|
|
kind: NetworkPolicy
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: deny-egress-to-wireguard
|
|
spec:
|
|
podSelector: {}
|
|
policyTypes:
|
|
- Egress
|
|
egress:
|
|
- to:
|
|
- ipBlock:
|
|
cidr: 0.0.0.0/0
|
|
except:
|
|
- 10.5.0.0/16 # The WireGuard mesh's CIDR.
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
