Implement a local/non agent option for the proxy server.

Open cheftako opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Currently the proxy-server attempts for forward all connection requests from the client to the proxy-agent. It would be useful to allow the proxy server to have a setting where it put the traffic on a local ethernet connection directly. This would allow us to firewall of the KAS so it could ONLY connect to the proxy-server(s). Then the relevant proxy-server could place traffic locally for things like connecting to the ETCD server.

I'll work on this issue assuming no one else has started.

To summarize a conversation with @cheftako offline, the current thinking is that the proxy-server either operates in a forwarding mode where all connection requests go to the proxy agent or in a local mode where everything is placed on a local interface, meaning that in the above example a separate proxy server would be used for etcd traffic. @cheftako Am I representing your thoughts correctly?

The idea behind that is that the KAS can NetworkContext routing can send traffic to different network proxy servers. So you can run 1 proxy server for local (eg. master + etcd) traffic and a second proxy server for cluster traffic.
