Notes

This flavor is identical to the default flavor with the exception that it provisions k8s clusters without VPC. Since it runs outside of VPC, native routing is not supported in this flavor and it uses VXLAN for pod to pod communication.

Usage

  1. Generate cluster yaml
    clusterctl generate cluster test-cluster \
        --infrastructure linode-linode \
        --flavor vpcless > test-cluster.yaml
    
  2. Apply cluster yaml
    kubectl apply -f test-cluster.yaml
