Create a Control Plane Group
Create a KonnectGatewayControlPlane object, then create a Control Plane group using a KonnectGatewayControlPlane object with the CLUSTER_TYPE_CONTROL_PLANE_GROUP cluster type.
Prerequisites
Kong Konnect
If you don’t have a Konnect account, you can get started quickly with our onboarding wizard.
- The following Konnect items are required to complete this tutorial:
- Personal access token (PAT): Create a new personal access token by opening the Konnect PAT page and selecting Generate Token.
-
Set the personal access token as an environment variable:
export KONNECT_TOKEN='YOUR KONNECT TOKEN'Copied to clipboard!
Create a KonnectGatewayControlPlane
Create a Control Plane using the KonnectGatewayControlPlane object:
echo '
kind: KonnectGatewayControlPlane
apiVersion: konnect.konghq.com/v1alpha1
metadata:
name: gateway-control-plane
namespace: kong
spec:
name: gateway-control-plane
konnect:
authRef:
name: konnect-api-auth
' | kubectl apply -f -
Create a KonnectGatewayControlPlane with members
Create a new KonnectGatewayControlPlane object, add the CLUSTER_TYPE_CONTROL_PLANE_GROUP cluster type, and add the Control Plane created in the previous step as a member:
echo '
kind: KonnectGatewayControlPlane
apiVersion: konnect.konghq.com/v1alpha1
metadata:
name: control-plane-group
namespace: kong
spec:
name: control-plane-group
cluster_type: CLUSTER_TYPE_CONTROL_PLANE_GROUP
members:
- name: gateway-control-plane
konnect:
authRef:
name: konnect-api-auth
' | kubectl apply -f -
Validation
Check that Programmed is True on the control-plane-group resource:
You can verify the KonnectGatewayControlPlane was reconciled successfully by checking its Programmed condition.
kubectl get -n kong konnectgatewaycontrolplane control-plane-group \
-o=jsonpath='{.status.conditions[?(@.type=="Programmed")]}' | jq
The output should look similar to this:
{
"observedGeneration": 1,
"reason": "Programmed",
"status": "True",
"type": "Programmed"
}
