Communication between pods running on multiple nodes

[nileshkumar-001]

Has anyone got communication between pods working with pods on different nodes to communicate with each other using the NIC added by Multus,

Could you please explain more because your description is not enough to troubleshooting. Appreciated if you fill following information. thanks.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Multus version image path and image ID (from 'docker images')
• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
• Primary CNI for Kubernetes cluster:
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release):
• File of '/etc/cni/net.d/'
• File of '/etc/cni/multus/net.d'
• NetworkAttachment info (use kubectl get net-attach-def -o yaml)
• Target pod yaml info (with annotation, use kubectl get pod <podname> -o yaml)
• Other log outputs (if you use multus logging)

Environment Setup: Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) with Azure CNI Overlay as default CNI

What happened: Deployed AKS cluster with Azure CNI Overlay then deployed Multus thick client from https://github.com/k8snetworkplumbingwg/multus-cni/blob/a373a2286d3f74d2b0ba05f2592c2820f0087053/deployments/multus-daemonset-thick.yml then deployed Whereabouts for IPAM

https://github.com/k8snetworkplumbingwg/whereabouts/blob/061b1aca2c1a6789f4a8d7d6450496cb44a22acf/doc/crds/daemonset-install.yaml https://github.com/k8snetworkplumbingwg/whereabouts/blob/3b01e1992f555cdb71f976dcabad349aedc21619/doc/crds/whereabouts.cni.cncf.io_ippools.yaml https://github.com/k8snetworkplumbingwg/whereabouts/blob/3b01e1992f555cdb71f976dcabad349aedc21619/doc/crds/whereabouts.cni.cncf.io_overlappingrangeipreservations.yaml

Deployed a pod with the annotations to add the second network card , second network card gets added and gets assigned an IP but Pod 1 on Node 1 can communicate with Pod 2 on Node 1 but cannot communicate with Pod 3 on Node 2

What you expected to happen: I expect that pods on any node can communicate with each other on the second network interface. I suspect that routing information needs to be added but how can this be automated.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): Running the above deployment steps and applying the 2 yaml files below

Anything else we need to know?:
