Once Liqo is installed in your cluster, you can start establishing new peerings. In this tutorial, we rely on LAN Discovery since our Kind clusters are in the same L2 broadcast domain.
Liqo can automatically discover any available clusters or make any clusters discoverable on the same LAN.
Using kubectl, you can also manually obtain the list of discovered foreign clusters:
kubectl get foreignclusters
NAME AGE
ff5aa14a-dd6e-4fd2-80fe-eaecb827cf55 101m
The foreigncluster object is used in Liqo to model remote clusters discovered.
To check whether Liqo attempts to peer with the foreign cluster automatically,
you can check the join property of the specific ForeignCluster resource:
kubectl get foreignclusters ${FOREIGN_CLUSTER} --template={{.spec.join}}
true
If the peering has succeded, you should see a virtual node (named liqo-*) in addition to your physical nodes:
kubectl get nodes
NAME STATUS ROLES
master-node Ready master
worker-node-1 Ready <none>
worker-node-2 Ready <none>
liqo-9a596a4b-591c-4ac6-8fd6-80258b4b3bf9 READY agent <-- This is the virtual node
You are now ready to verify that the resulting infrastructure works correctly, as presented in the next step.
