Cilium and Azure Arc: Solving the Multi-Cloud Cluster Manageability Conundrum

Cilium’s popularity as a CNI has been such that users have enabled it not just on cloud providers but have also chosen Cilium as the default CNI in their bare-metal and sandbox environments. On the data plane side, Cilium offers breakthrough features and enhancements. Still, on the control plane side, it becomes imperative that a solution is available wherein users can manage their infrastructure with a single pane of glass. Azure Arc combined with Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium provides a combined view for on-premise and cloud providers. This tutorial teaches you to manage multiple Kubernetes clusters running Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium with Azure Arc.

What is Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium?

Isovalent Cilium Enterprise is an enterprise-grade, hardened distribution of open-source projects Cilium, Hubble, and Tetragon, built and supported by the Cilium creators. Cilium enhances networking and security at the network layer, while Hubble ensures thorough network observability and tracing. Tetragon ties it all together with runtime enforcement and security observability, offering a well-rounded solution for connectivity, compliance, multi-cloud, and security concerns.

What is Azure Arc?

Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes allows you to attach Kubernetes clusters running anywhere so that you can manage and configure them in Azure. By managing your Kubernetes resources in a single control plane, you can enable a more consistent development and operation experience to run cloud-native apps anywhere and on any Kubernetes platform. Salient features of Azure Arc include:

  • Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes provides a centralized, consistent control plane to manage policy, governance, and security across Kubernetes clusters in different environments.
  • When the Azure Arc agents are deployed to the cluster, an outbound connection to Azure is initiated, using industry-standard SSL to secure data in transit.
  • Once clusters are connected to Azure, they’re represented as their resources in Azure Resource Manager, and they can be organized using resource groups and tagging.

Why Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium and Azure Arc?

You get the best out of both offerings with Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium and Azure Arc.

  • Advanced network policy: Isovalent Cilium Enterprise provides advanced network policy capabilities, including DNS-aware policy, L7 policy, and deny policy, enabling fine-grained control over network traffic for micro-segmentation and improved security.

Providers for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes

Note- The steps below are valid for all the distributions.

Set the Subscription

Choose the subscription you want to use if you have multiple Azure subscriptions.

  • Replace SubscriptionName with your subscription name.
  • You can also use your subscription ID instead of your subscription name.
az account set --subscription SubscriptionName

Register providers for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes

  • Enter the following commands:
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.Kubernetes
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.ExtendedLocation
  • Monitor the registration process. Registration may take up to 10 minutes.
az provider show -n Microsoft.Kubernetes -o table
Namespace             RegistrationPolicy    RegistrationState
--------------------  --------------------  -------------------
Microsoft.Kubernetes  RegistrationRequired  Registered


az provider show -n Microsoft.KubernetesConfiguration -o table

Create a Service Principal

For Azure Arc, you need to create an identity (user or service principal) that can be used to log in to Azure CLI and connect your cluster to Azure Arc. This step is optional if it has already been created previously.

az ad sp create-for-rbac -n kindazurearc --role contributor --scopes /subscriptions/##############################
Creating 'contributor' role assignment under scope '/subscriptions/##############################'
The output includes credentials that you must protect. Be sure that you do not include these credentials in your code or check the credentials into your source control. For more information, see https://aka.ms/azadsp-cli
{
  "appId": "##################################",
  "displayName": "kindazurearc",
  "password": "##############################",
  "tenant": "#################################"
}

Create a resource group

Create a Resource Group

az group create --name AzureArc --location eastus

Connect an existing Kubernetes cluster

Option 1- Deploying the Azure Arc agents to the cluster using az connectedk8s extension

Cluster management via Azure Arc

Now that your cluster(s) is connected to Azure, you can view it from the Azure portal. In this case, multiple clusters can now be managed from the Azure portal via Azure Arc.

  • Click > Home > Azure Arc > Kubernetes Clusters

Securely connect to an on-premises Kubernetes Cluster with Azure Arc

You can give users access using RBAC (Role-based access control) and let them connect to the Kubernetes cluster through Azure Arc.

Create a User on the Kubernetes Cluster

  • To authorize a user to access the Kubernetes cluster with the kubeconfig file pointing to the apiserver of your Kubernetes cluster, run this command to create a service account. This example creates the service account in the default namespace, but you can substitute any other namespace for default.
kubectl create serviceaccount demo-user -n default
serviceaccount/demo-user created
kubectl create clusterrolebinding demo-user-binding --clusterrole cluster-admin --serviceaccount default:demo-user
  • Create a service account token:
kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: demo-user-secret
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/service-account.name: demo-user
type: kubernetes.io/service-account-token
EOF
TOKEN=$(kubectl get secret demo-user-secret -o jsonpath='{$.data.token}' | base64 -d | sed 's/$/\n/g')
  • Get the token to output to the console
echo $TOKEN

Access the Kubernetes Cluster in the Azure Portal with Azure Arc

When you open the Azure Arc resource in the Azure Portal and go to any Kubernetes resources pane, you will see a message that you must sign in to view the Kubernetes resources. Sign in to view your Kubernetes resources.

Paste the previously created token into the text box and click Sign in. Now, you should see the resources of the Kubernetes cluster.

Access the Kubernetes cluster from your local machine with Azure Arc

Using the Azure Portal to access the Kubernetes cluster is nice, but many users are used to using kubectl. You can access the Kubernetes cluster from your local machine using the Azure CLI command.

az connectedk8s proxy -n <clusterName> -g <resourceGroup> --token <TOKEN>

Replace <TOKEN> with the previously created token. You can use this command on any computer if the Azure CLI is installed. The command downloads the Kubernetes config file, sets the context, and creates a proxy connection to the Kubernetes cluster through Azure Arc.

After the connection is established, open a new terminal window and use kubectl as you are used to. 

Monitor a Kubernetes Cluster with Azure Monitor and Azure Arc

Azure Arc allows you to project your on-premises Kubernetes cluster into Azure. Doing so enables you to manage the cluster from Azure with tools such as Azure Monitor.

Enable Azure Monitor

  • Click Azure Arc> Kubernetes Clusters > (name of cluster) > Insights > Configure Monitoring
  • Click Configure Monitoring and choose a Log Analytics workspace. This will create a new Log Analytics Workspace for the metrics and logs of the extensions. You can also use an existing Work Analytics Workspace.

Note- This usually takes 5-10 minutes before insights show up.

Create Dashboards in the Azure Portal

After you install the extension, it collects metric information and sends it to Azure. This allows you to use Azure Monitor the same way you would use Azure VMs.

Click > Azure Arc > Kubernetes clusters > Open Azure Arc > (name of cluster) > Insights >

For even more insight into your cluster or pods, open the Metrics pane in Azure Arc. There, you can create charts and display useful information. The following screenshot shows a chart that displays the pod count and the CPU percentage used for all nodes.

Click > Azure Arc > Kubernetes clusters > Open Azure Arc > (name of cluster) > Metrics >

Validation-Isovalent Enterprise for Cilium

Run cilium connectivity test (an automated test that checks that Cilium has been deployed correctly and tests intra-node connectivity, inter-node connectivity, and network policies) to verify that everything is working as expected.
