brc extract port

brc extract port

Extract particular port number and IP address from a specific Element

Synopsis

This command extracts the port number and IP address of a matching port name, most likely from the protocol names, from a particular Element in the namespace. If the --immediate flag is not set, the command would try to communicate with the Manager of that Element to get first-hand accurate information. In this case, routing to the pods to the cluster is required.

To set up routing to the cluster, you need to be on the same network as the cluster nodes or any other network that receives BGP routes from the cluster nodes. Port extraction with the Manager is not supported in public clouds or any other deployment type that does not run Calico or Cilium with BGP enabled.

The option --namespace by default points to a Kubernetes namespace of the default Kubernetes context. You may explicitly provide the context in the format of <context-name>.<namespace> to access the cluster using particular kubectlcontext.

  • This command does not support bare-metal machines for the context.
