When you deploy a new Kubernetes Cluster using the Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) the default CNI plugin that is installed is the VCN-Native plugin. With Cloud Native Computing you are flexible to choose your method of providing network (security) services to your container platform by just choosing another CNI plugin. In this tutorial, we are going to deploy a new Kubernetes Cluster using the Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) with the Flannel CNI plugin and we are going to change this for the Cilium CNI plugin. Cilium offers other network (security) features compared to the VCN-Native plugin and Flannel.
The Steps
- STEP 01: Deploy a Kubernetes Cluster (using OKE custom create)
- STEP 02: Install Cilium as a CNI on the OKE deployed Kubernetes Cluster
- STEP 03: Deploy a sample application
- STEP 04: Configure Kubernetes Services of Type NetworkPolicy
- STEP 05: Removing the sample application and Kubernetes Services of Type NetworkPolicy
- STEP 06: Deploy a sample application and configure Kubernetes Services of Type LoadBalancer (and clean up again)
STEP 01 - Deploy a Kubernetes Cluster using OKE custom-create
In [this] article you can read about the different OKE deployment models you can choose from.
The flavors are as follows:
- Example 1: Cluster with Flannel CNI Plugin, Public Kubernetes API Endpoint, Private Worker Nodes, and Public Load Balancers
- Example 2: Cluster with Flannel CNI Plugin, Private Kubernetes API Endpoint, Private Worker Nodes, and Public Load Balancers
- Example 3: Cluster with OCI CNI Plugin, Public Kubernetes API Endpoint, Private Worker Nodes, and Public Load Balancers
- Example 4: Cluster with OCI CNI Plugin, Private Kubernetes API Endpoint, Private Worker Nodes, and Public Load Balancers
I have chosen to go for the Example 1 deployment model in this example. I have previously explained how to deploy Example 3 in [this article].
- Click the hamburger menu.
- Click on Developer Services.
- Click Kubernetes Clusters (OKE).
- Click on Create Cluster.
- Select custom create.
- Click on Submit.
- Enter a Cluster Name.
- Select a Compartment.
- Select the Kubernetes version.
- Click on Next.
- Select Flannel overlay as the network type.
- Select a VCN that you want to use to deploy the new Kubernetes Cluster.
- Make sure you have created a VCN before this step, this is explained [here].
- Select a subnet (inside the VCN you just selected) to provide IP addresses to the Kubernetes Services.
- Make sure you have created a Subnet before this step, this is explained [here].
- Select a subnet (inside the VCN you just selected) to provide IP addresses to the Kubernetes API Endpoints.
- Make sure you have created a Subnet before this step, this is explained [here].
- Select Assign a public IP address to the API endpoint.
- Click on Next.
For the node pool (Worker Nodes), you can select different settings, but we are going to try to keep them the same.
- Select a Compartment.
- Select the Kubernetes version.
- Select an Availability Domain.
- Select a subnet (inside the VCN you just selected) to provide IP addresses to the Kubernetes Worker Nodes.
# Make sure you have created a Subnet before this step, this is explained [here].
- Select the Fault Domains you want to make use of to place your worker nodes in.
- Click on Next.
- Review the Network parameters.
- Scroll down.
- Review the Cluster parameters.
- Scroll down.
- Review the Node Pools parameters.
- Scroll down.
- Do NOT select to create a Basic Cluster.
- Click on Create cluster.
- Review the status of the different components that are created.
- Click on Close.
- Review that the status is CREATING.
- Review that the status is ACTIVE.
- Scroll down.
- Click on Node Pools.
- Notice that the (Worker) Nodes in the pool are still being created.
- After a few minutes notice that the (Worker) Nodes in the pool are active.
- Click on the Node Pool name.
- Scroll down.
- Notice that all Nodes are Ready and Active.
A visual representation of this deployment can be found in the diagram below.
- Go back to the OKE overview page: Developer Services > Kubernetes Clusters (OKE). - Click on the newly deployed Kubernetes Cluster.
- Click on Access Cluster.
- Select Cloud Shell Access.
- Click on Copy to copy the command to allow access to the Kubernetes Cluster.
- Click on Launch Cloud Shell.
- The Cloud Shell will now start. - Some informational messages will be shown on what is happening in the background.
- Notice that you have Shell Access.
- Click on Maximise to make the Cloud Shell window larger.
- Paste in the command that was copied before.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ oci ce cluster create-kubeconfig --cluster-id ocid1.cluster.oc1.eu-amsterdam-1.aaaaaaaaXXX --file $HOME/.kube/config --region eu-amsterdam-1 --token-version 2.0.0 --kube-endpoint PUBLIC_ENDPOINT
Existing Kubeconfig file found at /home/iwan_hooge/.kube/config and new config merged into it
- Issue the following command to gather information about the Worker Nodes:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get nodes
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION

10.0.10.79 Ready node 12m v1.28.2
- Review the deployed worker nodes.
STEP 02 - Install Cilium as a CNI on the OKE-deployed Kubernetes Cluster
- Issue the following command to verify the currently deployed CNI plugin (Flannel):

iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$
- You will get some errors because some pods are not yet managed by Cilium because the pod started before Cilium was running.
- This error is related to ClusterMesh.
- This error is related to Hubble UI and Hubble Relay.
- Notice that not all Cluster pods are managed by Cilium. Notice how only 3/7 pods are managed by Cilium. We need to ensure all of them are managed by cilium.
- Notice some additional error messages related to the above errors.
- Let’s check and allocate the pods that are currently not managed by Cilium. - Cilium is very helpful and provides a script to help you identify them.
- Issue the following command to download the script:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ curl -sLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cilium/cilium/master/contrib/k8s/k8s-unmanaged.sh

STEP 03 - Deploy a sample application
- Issue the following command to deploy a sample web application and service:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl run web --image=nginx --labels="app=web" --expose --port=80 service/web created pod/web created iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$
- Notice that the application and service have been created successfully.
- Issue the following command to verify the deployed application:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
web 1/1 Running 0 56s
- Notice that the web application is running.
- Issue the following command to verify the deployed service:

- Notice the HTML code that the web server returns, confirming the webserver and connectivity is working.
- Issue this command to exit the temporary pod:
}} / # exit Session ended, resume using 'kubectl attach test-8599 -c test-8599 -i -t' command when the pod is running pod "test-8599" deleted iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ }}
- Notice that the pod is deleted immediately after I exit the CLI.
STEP 04 - Configure Kubernetes Services of Type NetworkPolicy
One of the Network Security Services that the Cilium CNI is offering is the service of the type NetworkPolicy. This is a way of controlling the connectivity between pods by denying connectivity between two pods.
- Issue the following command to open the nano editor to create a new YAML file to implement a NetworkPolicy to deny all network traffic:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ nano web-deny-all.yaml
- Paste the following content in the YAML file:
kind: NetworkPolicy
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: web-deny-all
spec:
podSelector:
matchLabels:
app: web
ingress: []
- Use the CNTRL + X keyboard shortcut to exit the nano editor.
- Type in Y (Yes) to save the YAML file.
- Leave the YAML file name default (for the save).
- Issue the following command to verify if the new YAML file is created:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ ls -l
total 138068
-rwxrwxrwx. 1 iwan_hooge oci 101843096 Mar 18 17:19 cilium
-rw-r--r--. 1 iwan_hooge oci 39388621 Mar 21 10:38 cilium-linux-arm64.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--. 1 iwan_hooge oci 92 Mar 21 10:38 cilium-linux-arm64.tar.gz.sha256sum
-rw-r--r--. 1 iwan_hooge oci 126806 Mar 21 10:29 cilium.yaml
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 iwan_hooge oci 574 Mar 21 10:58 k8s-unmanaged.sh
-rw-------. 1 iwan_hooge oci 1671 Feb 14 10:07 ssh-key-2024-02-14.key
-rw-r--r--. 1 iwan_hooge oci 151 Mar 22 09:11 web-deny-all.yaml
- Notice that the “web-deny-all.yaml” file is present.
- Issue the following command to implement the security policy.
}} iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl apply -f web-deny-all.yaml networkpolicy.networking.k8s.io/web-deny-all created iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ }}
- Notice that the security policy is created.
- Deploy a sample pod to test the web application connectivity again (after the NetworkPolicy has been deployed).
- Issue the following command to deploy a sample pod to test the web application connectivity:
}} iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl run --rm -i -t --image=alpine test-$RANDOM -- sh If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter. }}
- Issue the following command to test connectivity to the web server using wget:
}}php / # wget -qO- --timeout=2 http://web wget: download timed out }}
- Notice that the request is timing out.
- Issue this command to exit the temporary pod:
}} / # exit Session ended, resume using 'kubectl attach test-26867 -c test-26867 -i -t' command when the pod is running pod "test-26867" deleted }}
- Now let's remove the security policy, and perform the tests again.
- Issue the following command to remove (delete) the security policy:
- Notice that the security policy is removed.
- Issue the following command to deploy a sample pod to test the web application connectivity:
}} iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl run --rm -i -t --image=alpine test-$RANDOM -- sh If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter. }}
- Issue the following command to test connectivity to the web server using wget:
- Notice the HTML code that the web server returns, confirming the webserver and connectivity is working.
- Issue this command to exit the temporary pod:
}} / # exit Session ended, resume using 'kubectl attach test-26248 -c test-26248 -i -t' command when the pod is running pod "test-26248" deleted iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ }}
- Notice that the pod is deleted immediately after I exit the CLI.
STEP 05 - Removing the sample application
- To clean up the deployed web application issue the following command:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl delete service web --namespace default
service "web" deleted
- To clean up the deployed web service issue the following command:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl delete pods -l app=web --namespace default
pod "web" deleted
STEP 06 - Deploy a sample application and configure Kubernetes Services of Type LoadBalancer and clean up again
Now that we have tested the NetworkPolicy service (using Cilium), let's also test out the LoadBalancer Service (using Cilium).
- Issue the following command to deploy a new Application.
}}php iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/application/deployment.yaml deployment.apps/nginx-deployment created }}
- Verify that the application is successfully created.
- Issue the following command to get the pods that are deployed.
}}php iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get pods NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE nginx-deployment-86dcfdf4c6-6ncvx 1/1 Running 0 10s nginx-deployment-86dcfdf4c6-qbhn2 1/1 Running 0 10s }}
- Review the deployed pods.
- Issue the following command to expose the application to the LoadBalancer Service.
}}php iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl expose deployment nginx-deployment --type=LoadBalancer --name=my-service service/my-service exposed }}
- Verify that the service is successfully created and the application is successfully exposed.
- Issue the following command to review the exposed services and the IP addresses.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP,12250/TCP 46h
my-service LoadBalancer 10.96.56.91 <pending> 80:32422/TCP 12s
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP,12250/TCP 46h
my-service LoadBalancer 10.96.56.91 <pending> 80:32422/TCP 23s
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP,12250/TCP 46h
my-service LoadBalancer 10.96.56.91 XXX.XXX.XXX.88 80:32422/TCP 37s
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$
- Notice that while the service is created the external IP is pending.
- Eventually after issuing the same command a few times a public IP address will be configured (ending with .88)
- Copy/Paste the public IP address (ending with .88) in an Internet Browser and verify if the deployed application (NGINX webserver with the default website) is reachable using the LoadBalancer service public IP address.
- A summary of the commands used can be found below:
kubectl get pods kubectl apply -f https://k8s.io/examples/application/deployment.yaml kubectl get pods kubectl get svc kubectl expose deployment nginx-deployment --type=LoadBalancer --name=my-service kubectl get svc
- Now that we have deployed the application and the LoadBalancer Service and the test was successful it is good to clean them up.
- Issue the following command to get the pods that are deployed.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get pods NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE nginx-deployment-86dcfdf4c6-6ncvx 1/1 Running 0 2m54s nginx-deployment-86dcfdf4c6-qbhn2 1/1 Running 0 2m54s
- Review the deployed pods.
- To clean up the deployed web application issue the following command:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl delete deployment nginx-deployment --namespace default
deployment.apps "nginx-deployment" deleted
- Confirm that the application is deleted.
- Issue the following command to get the pods that are deployed.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get pods
No resources found in default namespace.
- Notice that the pods are no longer deployed and successfully deleted.
- Issue the following command to get the services that are deployed.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE

my-service LoadBalancer 10.96.56.91 XXX.XXX.XXX.88 80:32422/TCP 2m42s
- Review the deployed services.
- To clean up the deployed LoadBalancer services issue the following command:
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl delete service my-service -n default
service "my-service" deleted
- . Confirm that the service is deleted.
- Issue the following command to get the services that are deployed.
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP,12250/TCP 46h
iwan_hooge@cloudshell:~ (eu-amsterdam-1)$
- Notice that the LoadBalancer service is no longer deployed and successfully deleted.
- A summary of the commands used can be found below:
kubectl get pods kubectl delete service my-service -n default kubectl get pods kubectl get svc kubectl delete deployment nginx-deployment --namespace default kubectl get svc
Conclusion
In this tutorial, we have deployed a new Kubernetes Cluster on the Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) platform using the custom create method. During this deployment, we selected the Flannel CNI plugin. We deployed the Cilium CNI plugin and removed the Flannel CNI plugin so that Cilium was the main CNI plugin for network (security) services for our Cloud Native applications. We then used the Cilium CNI plugin to deploy and test a NetworkPolicy and LoadBalancer service.
