Kubernetes Zerotier bridge

TL;DR

A Zerotier gateway to access your non-public k8s services thru ZT subnet

Kubernetes

Helm chart to deploy a DaemonSet

helm repo add kubernetes-zerotier-bridge https://leunamnauj.github.io/kubernetes-zerotier-bridge/

helm repo update

helm install --name kubernetes-zerotier-bridge kubernetes-zerotier-bridge/kubernetes-zerotier-bridge

Note: You are able to configure persistence setting persistentVolume.enabled=true and further storage parameters as needed.

Single Deployment

Since this docker image expects the subnetIDs as an env variable you need to use something like this

---
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: zerotier-networks
data:
  NETWORK_IDS: << your subnetid >>
  ZTAUTHTOKEN: << your token >>
  AUTOJOIN: true
  ZTHOSTNAME: << desired hostname>>
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: kubernetes-zerotier-bridge
spec:
  containers:
    - name: ubernetes-zerotier-bridge
      image: << your registry >>
      env:
      - name: NETWORK_IDS
        valueFrom:
          configMapKeyRef:
            name: zerotier-networks
            key: NETWORK_IDS 
      - name: ZTHOSTNAME
        valueFrom:
          configMapKeyRef:
            name: zerotier-networks
            key: ZTHOSTNAME 
      - name: ZTAUTHTOKEN
        valueFrom:
          configMapKeyRef:
            name: zerotier-networks
            key: ZTAUTHTOKEN 
      - name: AUTOJOIN
        valueFrom:
          configMapKeyRef:
            name: zerotier-networks
            key: AUTOJOIN 
      securityContext:
          privileged: true
          capabilities:
            add:
            - NET_ADMIN
            - SYS_ADMIN
            - CAP_NET_ADMIN
        volumeMounts:
        - name: dev-net-tun
          mountPath: /dev/net/tun

Important: Be aware of securityContext and dev-net-tun volume

Zerotier level config

In order to route traffic to this POD have to add the proper rule on ZT Managed Routes section, to accomplish that you have to know the ZT address assigned to the pod and your Service and/or PODs subnet.

Local Run

Running this locally will let you test your ZT connection and also use it without install ZT at all

Usage

Modify docker compose file accordly.

NETWORK_IDS Comma separated networkIDs.
ZTAUTHTOKEN Your network token, required to perform auto join and set hostname.
AUTOJOIN Automatically accept new host.
ZTHOSTNAME Hostname to identify this client. If not provided will keep it blank.
