The Kubernetes Sensor deploys components on each node and on the Kubernetes cluster. Both node and cluster must comply with all hardware requirements for the cluster you are running.
Consider all cluster nodes hardware configurations. Please contact VMware Carbon Black Support for additional information.
Kubernetes Cluster Requirements
- The Kubernetes cluster is v1.16+ with the admission control plugin
ValidatingAdmissionWebhookenabled. - You must have administrator privileges on the Kubernetes cluster. See the README file on https://github.com/octarinesec/octarine-operator.
- The Kubernetes cluster nodes can access the URL of the Carbon Black Cloud environment for HTTPS requests on port 443. The URL is the Carbon Black Cloud environment you are working with.
- The Kubernetes cluster nodes can access the Event Stream URL for gRPC traffic on port 443.
