# DNS Requirements for BasicStack Services
|
||||
|
||||
**Last Updated:** 2026-07-06
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This document lists all DNS records required for BasicStack services running on the k3s cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
## Primary Domain: basicstack.de
|
||||
|
||||
### A Records (HTTP/HTTPS Services)
|
||||
|
||||
All HTTP/HTTPS services are accessed via Traefik LoadBalancer. Point DNS records to one or more of the following IPs:
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended Target IPs:**
|
||||
- `178.105.17.239` (k3s-cp-1 control-plane - most stable)
|
||||
- `10.42.1.2` (k3s-worker-1 - if using private network routing)
|
||||
- `10.42.1.3` (k3s-worker-2 - if using private network routing)
|
||||
- `10.42.1.5` (k3s-worker-3 - if using private network routing)
|
||||
|
||||
### Required DNS A/CNAME Records
|
||||
|
||||
| Hostname | Type | Target | Service | Port(s) |

|
||||
|
||||
### Mail-Specific DNS Records
|
||||
|
||||
#### MX Records
|
||||
```
|
||||
basicstack.de. 3600 IN MX 10 mail.basicstack.de.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Mail Server A Record
|
||||
```
|
||||
mail.basicstack.de. 3600 IN A 178.105.17.239
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### SPF Record (TXT)
|
||||
```
|
||||
basicstack.de. 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 a:mail.basicstack.de ~all"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Explanation:
|
||||
- `v=spf1`: SPF version 1
|
||||
- `a:mail.basicstack.de`: Allow mail from the IP of mail.basicstack.de
|
||||
- `~all`: Soft fail for all other sources
|
||||
|
||||
#### DKIM Record (TXT)
|
||||
|
||||
**Important:** Replace `<public-key>` with actual DKIM public key from Stalwart configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
default._domainkey.basicstack.de. 3600 IN TXT "v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=<public-key>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To get the DKIM public key:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl exec -n stalwart deploy/stalwart -- cat /app/dkim/default.public.pem
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### DMARC Record (TXT)
|
||||
```
|
||||
_dmarc.basicstack.de. 3600 IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@basicstack.de"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Explanation:
|
||||
- `v=DMARC1`: DMARC version 1
|
||||
- `p=quarantine`: Policy for failed messages (quarantine them)
|
||||
- `rua`: Email address for aggregate reports
|
||||
|
||||
#### PTR Record (Reverse DNS)
|
||||
|
||||
**Important:** This must be configured at Hetzner for the server's public IP.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
239.17.105.178.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR mail.basicstack.de.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Request this from Hetzner Cloud for IP `178.105.17.239`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Wildcard DNS (Alternative)
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of individual A records, you can use a wildcard:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
*.basicstack.de. 3600 IN A 178.105.17.239
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros:**
|
||||
- Simpler DNS management
|
||||
- Automatic coverage for new services
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons:**
|
||||
- Less control over individual service routing
|
||||
- Potential security implications (all subdomains resolve)
|
||||
|
||||
## DNS Propagation and TTL
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended TTL:** 3600 seconds (1 hour)
|
||||
|
||||
**When changing DNS:**
|
||||
1. Lower TTL to 300 seconds (5 minutes) at least 24 hours before the change
|
||||
2. Make the DNS change
|
||||
3. Wait for propagation (typically 5-15 minutes with low TTL)
|
||||
4. Verify with: `dig <hostname> @8.8.8.8`
|
||||
5. Raise TTL back to 3600 seconds
|
||||
|
||||
## DNS Providers
|
||||
|
||||
### Hetzner DNS
|
||||
|
||||
If using Hetzner DNS:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Access via Hetzner Cloud Console or `hcloud` CLI
|
||||
2. Zone: `basicstack.de`
|
||||
3. Can manage via API or web interface
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Verification
|
||||
|
||||
Check DNS records:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check A record
|
||||
dig basicstack.de @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
|
||||
# Check MX record
|
||||
dig basicstack.de MX @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
|
||||
# Check TXT records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
|
||||
dig basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
dig default._domainkey.basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
dig _dmarc.basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
|
||||
# Check specific subdomain
|
||||
dig mail.basicstack.de @8.8.8.8 +short
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting DNS Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Service Not Accessible
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check DNS resolution:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
dig <hostname> @8.8.8.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Verify LoadBalancer IPs:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl get svc -n kube-system traefik
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Check Traefik ingress:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl get ingress -A | grep <hostname>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Test from within cluster:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl run -it --rm test --image=curlimages/curl --restart=Never -- curl -I https://<hostname>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mail Delivery Issues
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check MX record:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
dig basicstack.de MX @8.8.8.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Verify SMTP port accessibility:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
telnet mail.basicstack.de 25
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Check SPF/DKIM/DMARC:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
dig basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8
|
||||
dig default._domainkey.basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8
|
||||
dig _dmarc.basicstack.de TXT @8.8.8.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Verify reverse DNS (PTR):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
dig -x 178.105.17.239 @8.8.8.8
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## DNS Configuration Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
Before deploying a new service:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Add A record for service hostname
|
||||
- [ ] Verify DNS propagation (dig)
|
||||
- [ ] Create Kubernetes Ingress resource
|
||||
- [ ] Configure cert-manager Certificate
|
||||
- [ ] Test HTTPS accessibility
|
||||
- [ ] Update this document
|
||||
|
||||
For mail services, additionally:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Configure MX record
|
||||
- [ ] Configure SPF record
|
||||
- [ ] Generate and configure DKIM keys
|
||||
- [ ] Configure DMARC record
|
||||
- [ ] Request PTR record from Hetzner
|
||||
- [ ] Test mail delivery with external tool (mail-tester.com)

## Cluster Nodes
|
||||
|
||||
| Node | Private IP | Public IP | Role | node-ip Config | Flannel Backend |
|
||||
|------|-----------|-----------|------|----------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| k3s-cp-1 | 178.105.17.239 | 178.105.17.239 | control-plane | (uses public) | vxlan |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-1 | 10.42.1.2 | 178.105.216.48 | worker | `--node-ip=10.42.1.2` | vxlan |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-2 | 10.42.1.3 | 49.13.134.255 | worker | `--node-ip=10.42.1.3` | vxlan |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-3 | 10.42.1.5 | 167.233.121.121 | worker | `--node-ip=10.42.1.5` | vxlan |
|
||||
| k3s-update-runner | 167.233.79.65 | 167.233.79.65 | update-runner | (uses public) | vxlan |
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Node Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Worker Nodes MUST have `--node-ip` set to private IP:**
|
||||
- Without this flag, k3s defaults to the public IP
|
||||
- LoadBalancer services advertise node IPs as EXTERNAL-IPs
|
||||
- If workers use public IPs as node-ip, routing fails because internal cluster networking expects private IPs
|
||||
- Fixed in DEV-224
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration Location:** `/etc/systemd/system/k3s-agent.service`
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/k3s agent --node-ip=10.42.1.2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After modifying:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
systemctl daemon-reload
|
||||
systemctl restart k3s-agent
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## CNI: Flannel Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Overview
|
||||
- **CNI Plugin:** Flannel (built-in with k3s)
|
||||
- **Backend Type:** VXLAN
|
||||
- **Pod Network CIDR:** 10.244.0.0/16
|
||||
- **Cluster Network CIDR:** 10.42.0.0/16
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical: Flannel Uses Public IPs for VXLAN Tunnels
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Fact:** Flannel VXLAN uses PUBLIC IPs for tunnels, not private IPs.
|
||||
|
||||
Each node has a Flannel annotation:
|
||||
```
|
||||
flannel.alpha.coreos.com/public-ip: <node-public-ip>
|
||||
flannel.alpha.coreos.com/backend-type: vxlan
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:**
|
||||
- When adding a new node, its **public IP** must be added to Hetzner firewall `fw-k3s`
|
||||
- If public IP is not in firewall, pods on that node cannot reach DNS or other pods
|
||||
- Firewall must allow VXLAN traffic (UDP port 8472) between all node public IPs
|
||||
|
||||
### Hetzner Firewall Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Firewall Name:** `fw-k3s`
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Rules:**
|
||||
1. Allow public IPs of ALL cluster nodes for VXLAN (UDP 8472)
|
||||
2. Allow external traffic: HTTP (80), HTTPS (443)
|
||||
3. Allow mail traffic: SMTP (25, 587, 465), IMAP (143, 993)
|
||||
|
||||
**When adding a new worker node:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get new node public IP first
|
||||
hcloud server describe <server-name> -o json | jq -r '.public_net.ipv4.ip'
|
||||
|
||||
# Update firewall to include new public IP
|
||||
hcloud firewall replace-rules fw-k3s \
|
||||
--rules-file fw-k3s-rules.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Ingress Controller: Traefik
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
- **Type:** LoadBalancer Service
|
||||
- **Controller:** traefik.io/ingress-controller
|
||||
- **IngressClass:** `traefik` (default)
|
||||
- **Namespace:** kube-system
|
||||
- **Service Name:** traefik
|
||||
|
||||
### LoadBalancer IPs
|
||||
|
||||
Traefik LoadBalancer service exposes on:
|
||||
```
|
||||
10.42.1.2 (worker-1)
|
||||
10.42.1.3 (worker-2)
|
||||
10.42.1.5 (worker-3)
|
||||
167.233.79.65 (update-runner)
|
||||
178.105.17.239 (control-plane)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Ports:**
|
||||
- **web:** 80/TCP → 8000/TCP (NodePort: 31538)
|
||||
- **websecure:** 443/TCP → 8443/TCP (NodePort: 32457)
|
||||
|
||||
### k3s ServiceLB
|
||||
|
||||
k3s includes a built-in LoadBalancer controller (ServiceLB / Klipper-LB) that:
|
||||
- Deploys DaemonSet pods on all nodes for each LoadBalancer service
|
||||
- Advertises node IPs as LoadBalancer EXTERNAL-IPs
|
||||
- Routes traffic to target pods via NodePort
|
||||
|
||||
**Example DaemonSet:** `svclb-traefik-ee4e1a78` in kube-system namespace
|
||||
|
||||
### Ingress Resources
|
||||
|
||||
All HTTP/HTTPS services use Traefik ingress with TLS:
|
||||
|
||||
| Namespace | Ingress Name | Host(s) | TLS Certificate |
|
||||

## LoadBalancer Services
|
||||
|
||||
### Traefik Ingress Controller
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Service: kube-system/traefik
|
||||
Type: LoadBalancer
|
||||
External-IPs: 10.42.1.2, 10.42.1.3, 10.42.1.5, 167.233.79.65, 178.105.17.239
|
||||
Ports:
|
||||
- 80/TCP (web)
|
||||
- 443/TCP (websecure)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Stalwart Mail Server
|
||||
|
||||
#### SMTP Service
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Service: stalwart/stalwart-smtp
|
||||
Type: LoadBalancer
|
||||
External-IPs: 10.42.1.2, 10.42.1.3, 10.42.1.5, 178.105.17.239
|
||||
Ports:

|
||||
- 143/TCP (IMAP)
|
||||
- 993/TCP (IMAPS)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## DNS Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### Domain: basicstack.de
|
||||
|
||||
**DNS Provider:** Managed via Hetzner DNS
|
||||
|
||||
#### Required DNS Records
|
||||
|
||||
**A Records (HTTP/HTTPS Services):**
|
||||
All HTTPS services point to LoadBalancer IPs. Since we use multiple LoadBalancer IPs, DNS should point to the most stable/accessible IPs:
|
||||
|
||||
- Recommended: Point to worker node private IPs (10.42.1.2, 10.42.1.3, 10.42.1.5) OR
|
||||
- Alternative: Point to control-plane public IP (178.105.17.239)
|
||||
|
||||
**Wildcard Option:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
*.basicstack.de → 178.105.17.239 (or round-robin to worker IPs)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Specific Records:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
basicstack.org → 178.105.17.239
|
||||
www.basicstack.org → 178.105.17.239
|
||||
paperclip.basicstack.de → 178.105.17.239
|
||||
mail.basicstack.de → 178.105.17.239
|
||||
auth.basicstack.de → 178.105.17.239
|
||||
(etc. for all services)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**MX Records (Mail):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
basicstack.de MX 10 mail.basicstack.de
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**SPF Record:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
basicstack.de TXT "v=spf1 a:mail.basicstack.de ~all"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**DKIM Record:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
default._domainkey.basicstack.de TXT "v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=<public-key>"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**DMARC Record:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
_dmarc.basicstack.de TXT "v=DMARC1; p=quarantine; rua=mailto:dmarc@basicstack.de"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Internal DNS: CoreDNS
|
||||
|
||||
**Service:** kube-system/kube-dns
|
||||
**Cluster Domain:** cluster.local
|
||||
|
||||
CoreDNS configuration:
|
||||
```
|
||||
.:53 {
|
||||
errors
|
||||
health
|
||||
ready
|
||||
kubernetes cluster.local in-addr.arpa ip6.arpa {
|
||||
pods insecure
|
||||
fallthrough in-addr.arpa ip6.arpa
|
||||
}
|
||||
hosts /etc/coredns/NodeHosts {
|
||||
ttl 60
|
||||
reload 15s
|
||||
fallthrough
|
||||
}
|
||||
prometheus :9153
|
||||
cache 30
|
||||
loop
|
||||
reload
|
||||
loadbalance
|
||||
forward . /etc/resolv.conf
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Services within the cluster are accessible via:
|
||||
- `<service-name>.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local`
|
||||
- `<service-name>.<namespace>`
|
||||
|
||||
## TLS Certificate Management
|
||||
|
||||
### cert-manager
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** Automated TLS certificate provisioning and renewal via Let's Encrypt
|
||||
|
||||
**Certificate Status:**
|
||||
|
||||
All ingress resources have associated Certificate resources. Current status:
|
||||
- Most certificates: **Ready = True**
|
||||
- `container-registry/registry-tls`: **Ready = False** (requires troubleshooting)
|
||||
|
||||
### Certificate Reloading: Stakater Reloader
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** Automatically restarts pods when their ConfigMaps or Secrets change
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** When cert-manager renews a certificate, pods need to reload the updated TLS certificate. Reloader watches for Secret changes and triggers rolling restarts.
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration:** See `infrastructure/networking/reloader.yaml`
|
||||
|
||||
**How to use:**
|
||||
Add annotation to Deployment/StatefulSet:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
annotations:
|
||||
reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or watch specific secrets:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
metadata:
|
||||
annotations:
|
||||
reloader.stakater.com/search: "true"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Network Policies
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Policies
|
||||
|
||||
Network policies restrict pod-to-pod communication for security:
|
||||
|
||||
| Namespace | Policy Name | Pod Selector | Purpose |
|
||||
|-----------|-------------|--------------|---------|
|
||||
| kube-system | allow-all | (none) | Default allow-all (cluster-wide) |
|
||||
| nextcloud | nextcloud-postgresql | PostgreSQL pods | Restrict DB access |
|
||||
| nextcloud | nextcloud-redis | Redis pods | Restrict cache access |
|
||||
| planka | planka-postgresql | PostgreSQL pods | Restrict DB access |
|
||||
|
||||
### Default Policy
|
||||
|
||||
The `kube-system/allow-all` policy allows all traffic by default. This is a permissive configuration suitable for trusted internal cluster traffic.
|
||||
|
||||
### Service-Specific Policies
|
||||
|
||||
Database and cache services (PostgreSQL, Redis) have restrictive policies that only allow traffic from their respective application pods.
|
||||
|
||||
## Service Types Decision Matrix
|
||||
|
||||
| Service Type | When to Use | LoadBalancer IPs | External Access |
|
||||
|--------------|-------------|------------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| **ClusterIP** | Internal services only | N/A | No direct access |
|
||||
| **NodePort** | Direct node access needed (rare) | N/A | Via NodeIP:NodePort |
|
||||
| **LoadBalancer** | External access needed (HTTP/HTTPS/SMTP/IMAP) | Advertised from all nodes | Yes, via LoadBalancer IP |
|
||||
| **Ingress** | HTTP/HTTPS with routing | Via Traefik LoadBalancer | Yes, with TLS termination |
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision Tree
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Is the service HTTP/HTTPS?**
|
||||
- Yes → Use **Ingress** (Traefik handles routing + TLS)
|
||||
- No → Continue
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Does the service need external access?**
|
||||
- No → Use **ClusterIP**
|
||||
- Yes → Continue
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Is it a standard protocol (SMTP, IMAP, etc.)?**
|
||||
- Yes → Use **LoadBalancer** service
|
||||
- No → Consider **NodePort** or **LoadBalancer**
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Service Distribution
|
||||
|
||||
- **ClusterIP:** Most internal services (databases, caches, APIs)
|
||||
- **LoadBalancer:** Traefik (3x), Stalwart SMTP, Stalwart IMAP
|
||||
- **Ingress:** All HTTP/HTTPS services (via Traefik)
|
||||
|
||||
## Traffic Flows
|
||||
|
||||
### Ingress Traffic (HTTP/HTTPS)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Internet → DNS → Hetzner Firewall (fw-k3s)
|
||||
→ LoadBalancer IP (any worker node)
|
||||
→ Traefik Ingress Controller (Pod on control-plane)
|
||||
→ Backend Service (ClusterIP)
|
||||
→ Application Pods
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Direct LoadBalancer Traffic (SMTP/IMAP)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Internet → DNS → Hetzner Firewall (fw-k3s)
|
||||
→ LoadBalancer IP (any worker or control-plane node)
|
||||
→ Service DaemonSet Pod (svclb-stalwart-*)
|
||||
→ Backend Service (ClusterIP)
|
||||
→ Stalwart Pods
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Internal Service-to-Service
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Source Pod → ClusterIP Service → Target Pods
|
||||
(via Flannel VXLAN overlay network)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### External API Calls (Egress)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Application Pod → Default Gateway → Node → Internet
|
||||
(No egress restrictions by default)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Network Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues and Solutions
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. Service Not Accessible Externally
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms:**
|
||||
- Service times out or connection refused from external clients
|
||||
- Works from within cluster
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check service type and external IPs
|
||||
kubectl get svc -n <namespace> <service-name>
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if LoadBalancer has assigned IPs
|
||||
kubectl describe svc -n <namespace> <service-name> | grep "LoadBalancer Ingress"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if Traefik ingress is configured
|
||||
kubectl get ingress -n <namespace>
|
||||
|
||||
# Check Traefik logs
|
||||
kubectl logs -n kube-system -l app.kubernetes.io/name=traefik
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solutions:**
|
||||
- Verify DNS points to correct LoadBalancer IP
|
||||
- Check Hetzner firewall allows required ports
|
||||
- Verify ingress configuration and TLS certificate status
|
||||
- Check that worker nodes have correct `--node-ip` configuration
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. DNS Resolution Failing
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms:**
|
||||
- Pods cannot resolve external domains
|
||||
- Inter-service DNS not working
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check CoreDNS pods
|
||||
kubectl get pods -n kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns
|
||||
|
||||
# Test DNS from a pod
|
||||
kubectl run -it --rm debug --image=busybox --restart=Never -- nslookup kubernetes.default
|
||||
|
||||
# Check CoreDNS logs
|
||||
kubectl logs -n kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solutions:**
|
||||
- Verify CoreDNS pods are running
|
||||
- Check node's `/etc/resolv.conf` configuration
|
||||
- Verify Flannel public IPs are in Hetzner firewall
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. Pod-to-Pod Communication Failing
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms:**
|
||||
- Services cannot reach each other
|
||||
- Random connection timeouts between pods
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check Flannel annotations on nodes
|
||||
kubectl get nodes -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{.metadata.name}{"\t"}{.metadata.annotations.flannel\.alpha\.coreos\.com/public-ip}{"\n"}{end}'
|
||||
|
||||
# Check network policies
|
||||
kubectl get networkpolicies -A
|
||||
|
||||
# Test connectivity from a pod
|
||||
kubectl run -it --rm debug --image=busybox --restart=Never -- ping <other-pod-ip>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solutions:**
|
||||
- Verify all node public IPs are in Hetzner firewall `fw-k3s`
|
||||
- Check network policies aren't blocking traffic
|
||||
- Verify Flannel VXLAN (UDP 8472) is allowed between all nodes
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4. Certificate Issues
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms:**
|
||||
- Browser shows certificate warnings
|
||||
- Service returns 404 or connection refused on HTTPS
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check certificate status
|
||||
kubectl get certificate -n <namespace>
|
||||
|
||||
# Check certificate details
|
||||
kubectl describe certificate -n <namespace> <cert-name>
|
||||
|
||||
# Check cert-manager logs
|
||||
kubectl logs -n cert-manager -l app=cert-manager
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solutions:**
|
||||
- Verify cert-manager is running and healthy
|
||||
- Check that HTTP-01 challenge can reach the ingress
|
||||
- Verify DNS points to correct LoadBalancer IP
|
||||
- Manual certificate reissue: Delete certificate and let cert-manager recreate
|
||||
|
||||
#### 5. LoadBalancer Service Not Getting IPs
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms:**
|
||||
- LoadBalancer service shows `<pending>` for EXTERNAL-IP
|
||||
- No IPs assigned after several minutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnosis:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check service status
|
||||
kubectl describe svc -n <namespace> <service-name>
|
||||
|
||||
# Check ServiceLB DaemonSets
|
||||
kubectl get ds -n kube-system | grep svclb
|
||||
|
||||
# Check ServiceLB controller logs (part of k3s)
|
||||
kubectl logs -n kube-system -l svccontroller.k3s.cattle.io/svcname=<service-name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solutions:**
|
||||
- Verify worker nodes have `--node-ip` set to private IPs
|
||||
- Check that nodes are in Ready state
|
||||
- Restart k3s on affected nodes if needed
|
||||
|
||||
### Diagnostic Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Show all services with their types and IPs
|
||||
kubectl get svc -A -o wide
|
||||
|
||||
# Show all ingress resources
|
||||
kubectl get ingress -A
|
||||
|
||||
# Show all certificates
|
||||
kubectl get certificate -A
|
||||
|
||||
# Show node details including IPs and annotations
|
||||
kubectl get nodes -o json | jq -r '.items[] | {name: .metadata.name, internal_ip: (.status.addresses[] | select(.type=="InternalIP") | .address), external_ip: (.status.addresses[] | select(.type=="ExternalIP") | .address), flannel_public_ip: .metadata.annotations."flannel.alpha.coreos.com/public-ip"}'
|
||||
|
||||
# Check Flannel VXLAN interfaces on nodes (requires SSH)
|
||||
ssh <node> ip -d link show flannel.1
|
||||
|
||||
# Check ServiceLB DaemonSets
|
||||
kubectl get ds -n kube-system -l svccontroller.k3s.cattle.io/svcnamespace
|
||||
|
||||
# Test external connectivity from within cluster
|
||||
kubectl run -it --rm curl --image=curlimages/curl --restart=Never -- curl -I https://<service>.<domain>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Maintenance Procedures
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding a New Node
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Provision node on Hetzner Cloud**
|
||||
2. **Get node public IP:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
hcloud server describe <server-name> -o json | jq -r '.public_net.ipv4.ip'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Update Hetzner firewall:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
hcloud firewall replace-rules fw-k3s --rules-file fw-k3s-rules.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
(Include new node's public IP)
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Install k3s agent on new node:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# For worker node - MUST include --node-ip
|
||||
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | K3S_URL=https://<control-plane>:6443 \
|
||||
K3S_TOKEN=<token> \
|
||||
INSTALL_K3S_EXEC="agent --node-ip=<private-ip>" sh -
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Verify node joined:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl get nodes
|
||||
kubectl get nodes <node-name> -o jsonpath='{.metadata.annotations}'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Removing a Node
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Drain node:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl drain <node-name> --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Delete node from cluster:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
kubectl delete node <node-name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Delete server on Hetzner Cloud**
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Update Hetzner firewall** (remove node's public IP if no longer needed)
|
||||
|
||||
### Updating DNS Records
|
||||
|
||||
**Important:** When updating DNS records for services, ensure:
|
||||
1. DNS points to stable LoadBalancer IPs (control-plane or worker private IPs)
|
||||
2. TTL is set appropriately (300-3600 seconds)
|
||||
3. MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC records are correct for mail services
|
||||
|
||||
### Certificate Renewal
|
||||
|
||||
Certificates are automatically renewed by cert-manager 30 days before expiration. Reloader automatically restarts pods when certificates are updated.
|
||||
|
||||
**Manual renewal (if needed):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Delete certificate to trigger recreation
|
||||
kubectl delete certificate -n <namespace> <cert-name>
|
||||
|
||||
# cert-manager will automatically recreate and issue
|
||||
kubectl get certificate -n <namespace> <cert-name> -w
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### Firewall Rules
|
||||
- Only required ports are open (80, 443, 25, 587, 465, 143, 993)
|
||||
- VXLAN traffic (UDP 8472) restricted to known node public IPs
|
||||
- Regular review of firewall rules required
|
||||
|
||||
### Network Policies
|
||||
- Database and cache services have restrictive policies
|
||||
- Consider implementing more restrictive default-deny policies for production
|
||||
- Regularly audit network policy effectiveness
|
||||
|
||||
### TLS/SSL
|
||||
- All HTTP services must use HTTPS (enforced by Traefik)
|
||||
- Certificate auto-renewal reduces manual intervention and expiration risk
|
||||
- Regular monitoring of certificate status required
|
||||
|
||||
### Node Access
|
||||
- Worker nodes should use private IPs for `--node-ip`
|
||||
- SSH access should be restricted to authorized IPs
|
||||
- Regular security updates required
|
||||

# Network Configuration Verification Report
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 2026-07-06
|
||||
**Issue:** DEV-225
|
||||
**Cluster:** BasicStack k3s v1.36.2+k3s1
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
This document verifies the current network configuration of the BasicStack k3s cluster and confirms all components are properly configured.
|
||||
|
||||
## Verification Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Cluster Nodes Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** VERIFIED
|
||||
|
||||
All 5 cluster nodes are online and properly configured:
|
||||
|
||||
| Node | Status | Private IP | Public IP | node-ip Config |
|
||||
|------|--------|------------|-----------|----------------|
|
||||
| k3s-cp-1 | Ready | 178.105.17.239 | 178.105.17.239 | (uses public) |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-1 | Ready | 10.42.1.2 | 178.105.216.48 | ✅ Correct |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-2 | Ready | 10.42.1.3 | 49.13.134.255 | ✅ Correct |
|
||||
| k3s-worker-3 | Ready | 10.42.1.5 | 167.233.121.121 | ✅ Correct |
|
||||
| k3s-update-runner | Ready | 167.233.79.65 | 167.233.79.65 | (uses public) |
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Finding:** All worker nodes have `--node-ip` correctly set to their private IPs (10.42.1.x). This is essential for LoadBalancer service routing.
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ CNI: Flannel Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** VERIFIED

## External Service Accessibility Testing
|
||||
|
||||
### HTTPS Services
|
||||
|
||||
Limited testing performed from workspace (some services timeout, likely DNS or network routing):
|
||||
|
||||
| Service | Status | Response Time |
|
||||
|---------|--------|---------------|
|
||||
| mail.basicstack.de | ✅ 302 Redirect | 0.07s |
|
||||
| paperclip.basicstack.de | ⚠️ Timeout | 10s+ |
|
||||
| forgejo.basicstack.de | ⚠️ Timeout | 10s+ |
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Timeouts may be due to:
|
||||
1. DNS not properly configured externally
|
||||
2. Firewall rules blocking traffic from test location
|
||||
3. Services requiring authentication (causing timeouts)
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Test from external location with proper DNS configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
### Mail Services (SMTP/IMAP)
|
||||
|
||||
**Status:** NOT TESTED FROM WORKSPACE
|
||||
|
||||
Tools (nc, telnet) not available in workspace. External testing recommended.
|
||||
|
||||
## Findings and Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Properly Configured
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Node IP Configuration:** All worker nodes correctly use `--node-ip` with private IPs
|
||||
2. **Flannel VXLAN:** Properly configured with public IP annotations
|
||||
3. **Traefik Ingress:** Running and serving multiple services
|
||||
4. **TLS Certificates:** 16/17 certificates valid and ready
|
||||
5. **LoadBalancer Services:** All three LoadBalancer services have assigned IPs
|
||||
6. **Network Policies:** Database services properly secured
|
||||
|
||||
### ⚠️ Issues Found
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Container Registry Certificate:** `registry-tls` certificate not ready
|
||||
- **Action:** Investigate cert-manager logs and ingress configuration
|
||||
- **Priority:** Medium
|
||||
|
||||
2. **External Accessibility:** Some services timeout when tested
|
||||
- **Action:** Verify DNS records point to correct LoadBalancer IPs
|
||||
- **Action:** Test from external location
|
||||
- **Priority:** High (if confirmed issue)
|
||||
|
||||
### 📋 Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **DNS Verification:** Confirm all DNS A records point to 178.105.17.239 (or appropriate LoadBalancer IPs)
|
||||
2. **Firewall Verification:** Confirm Hetzner firewall `fw-k3s` includes all node public IPs
|
||||
3. **Certificate Fix:** Troubleshoot and fix `container-registry/registry-tls` certificate
|
||||
4. **External Testing:** Perform comprehensive external accessibility testing for all services
|
||||
5. **Monitoring:** Set up alerts for certificate expiration and renewal failures
|
||||
6. **Documentation:** Keep DNS_REQUIREMENTS.md updated when new services are added
|
||||
|
||||
