How to change the default nodeport range on Mac (docker-desktop)?
I'd like to change the default nodeport range on Mac. Is it possible? I'm glad to have found this article: http://www.thinkcode.se/blog/2019/02/20/kubernetes-service-node-port-range
. Since I can't find /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-apiserver.yaml
in my environment, I tried to achieve what I want to do by running sudo kubectl edit pod kube-apiserver-docker-desktop --namespace=kube-system
and add the parameter --service-node-port-range=443-22000
. But when I tried to save it, I got the following error:
# pods "kube-apiserver-docker-desktop" was not valid:
# * spec: Forbidden: pod updates may not change fields other than `spec.containers[*].image`, `spec.initContainers[*].image`, `spec.activeDeadlineSeconds` or `spec.tolerations` (only additions to existing tolerations)
(I get the same error even if I don't touch port 443.) Can someone please share his/her thoughts or experience? Thanks!

The correct way to change kube-apiserver
parameters for Docker-for-desktop on Mac:
login to Docker VM:
$ screen ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/vms/0/tty
#(you can also use privileged container for the same purpose)
docker run -it --privileged --pid=host debian nsenter -t 1 -m -u -n -i sh
#or
docker run --rm -it --privileged --pid=host walkerlee/nsenter -t 1 -m -u -i -n sh
# as suggested here: https://forums.docker.com/t/is-it-possible-to-ssh-to-the-xhyve-machine/17426/5
# in case of minikube use the following command:
$ minikube ssh
Edit kube-apiserver.yaml (it's one of static pods, they are created by kubelet using files in /etc/kubernetes/manifests)
$ vi /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-apiserver.yaml
# for minikube
$ sudo vi /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-apiserver.yaml
Add the following line to the pod spec:
spec:
containers:
- command:
- kube-apiserver
- --advertise-address=192.168.65.3
...
- --service-node-port-range=443-22000 # <-- add this line
...
Save and exit. Pod kube-apiserver will be restarted with new parameters.
Exit Docker VM (for screen
: Ctrl-a,k
, for container: Ctrl-d
)
Check the results:
$ kubectl get pod kube-apiserver-docker-desktop -o yaml -n kube-system | less
Create simple deployment and expose it with service:
$ kubectl run nginx1 --image=nginx --replicas=2
$ kubectl expose deployment nginx1 --port 80 --type=NodePort
$ kubectl get svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
kubernetes ClusterIP 10.96.0.1 <none> 443/TCP 14d
nginx1 NodePort 10.99.173.234 <none> 80:14966/TCP 5s
As you can see NodePort was chosen from the new range.
There are other ways to expose your container: HostNetwork, HostPort, MetalLB
You need to add the correct security context for that purpose, check out how the ingress addon in minikube works, for example.
