保护 gateway.networking.k8s.io 网关源¶
功能状态: cert-manager 1.5 [alpha]
Info
📌 本页面主要介绍通过标注Kubernetes网关源来自动创建证书源。 如果您正在寻找使用Kubernetes网关API使用ACME发布者和HTTP-01挑战,请参阅ACME HTTP-01.
Info
🚧 cert-manager 1.8+使用v1alpha2 Kubernetes网关API进行测试。 由于源转换,它也可以与v1beta1一起工作,但还没有使用它进行测试。
cert-manager 可以为 Gateway 源生成 TLS 证书。这是通过向网关添加注释来配置的,类似于保护入口源的过程。
Gateway 源是Gateway API的一部分,Gateway API 是一组可以安装在 Kubernetes 集群上的 CRDs,它提供了对 Ingress API 的各种改进。
The Gateway resource holds the TLS configuration, as illustrated in the following diagram (source: https://gateway-api.sigs.k8s.io):
Info
📌 This feature requires the installation of the Gateway API bundle and passing a feature flag to the cert-manager controller.
To install v1.5.1 Gateway API bundle (Gateway CRDs and webhook), run the following command:
kubectl apply -f "https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/gateway-api/releases/download/v0.5.1/standard-install.yaml"
To enable the feature in cert-manager, turn on the GatewayAPI
feature gate:
- If you are using Helm:
helm upgrade --install cert-manager jetstack/cert-manager --namespace cert-manager \
--set "extraArgs={--feature-gates=ExperimentalGatewayAPISupport=true}"
- If you are using the raw cert-manager manifests, add the following flag to the cert-manager controller Deployment:
The Gateway API CRDs should either be installed before cert-manager starts or the cert-manager Deployment should be restarted after installing the Gateway API CRDs. This is important because some of the cert-manager components only perform the Gateway API check on startup. You can restart cert-manager with the following command:
The annotations cert-manager.io/issuer
or cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer
tell cert-manager to create a Certificate for a Gateway. For example, the following Gateway will trigger the creation of a Certificate with the name example-com-tls
:
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: example
annotations:
cert-manager.io/issuer: foo
spec:
gatewayClassName: foo
listeners:
- name: http
hostname: example.com
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
allowedRoutes:
namespaces:
from: All
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
A few moments later, cert-manager will create a Certificate. The Certificate is named after the Secret name example-com-tls
. The dnsNames
field is set with the hostname
field from the Gateway spec.
apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
name: example-com-tls
spec:
issuerRef:
name: my-issuer
kind: Issuer
group: cert-manager.io
dnsNames:
- example.com # ✅ Copied from the `hostname` field.
secretName: example-com-tls
Info
🚧 this mechanism can only be used to create Secrets in the same namespace as the Gateway
, see cert-manager#5610
Use cases¶
Generate TLS certs for selected TLS blocks¶
cert-manager skips any listener block that cannot be used for generating a Certificate. For a listener block to be used for creating a Certificate, it must meet the following requirements:
Field | Requirement |
---|---|
tls.hostname | Must not be empty. |
tls.mode | Must be set to Terminate . Passthrough is not supported. |
tls.certificateRef.name | Cannot be left empty. |
tls.certificateRef.kind | If specified, must be set to Secret . |
tls.certificateRef.group | If specified, must be set to core . |
tls.certificateRef.namespace | If specified, must be the same as the Gateway . |
In the following example, the first four listener blocks will not be used to generate Certificate resources:
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: my-gateway
namespace: default
annotations:
cert-manager.io/issuer: my-issuer
spec:
listeners:
# ❌ Missing "tls" block, the following listener is skipped.
- hostname: example.com
# ❌ Missing "hostname", the following listener is skipped.
- tls:
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret"
group: core
# ❌ "mode: Passthrough" is not supported, the following listener is skipped.
- hostname: example.com
tls:
mode: Passthrough
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
# ❌ Cross-namespace secret references are not supported, the following listener is skipped.
- hostname: foo.example.com
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
allowedRoutes:
namespaces:
from: All
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
namespace: other-namespace
# ✅ The following listener is valid.
- hostname: foo.example.com # ✅ Required.
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
allowedRoutes:
namespaces:
from: All
tls:
mode: Terminate # ✅ Required. "Terminate" is the only supported mode.
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls # ✅ Required.
kind: Secret # ✅ Required. "Secret" is the only valid value.
group: core # ✅ Required. "core" is the only valid value.
cert-manager has skipped over the first four listener blocks and has created a single Certificate named example-com-tls
for the last listener block:
apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
name: example-com-tls
spec:
issuerRef:
name: my-issuer
kind: Issuer
group: cert-manager.io
dnsNames:
- foo.example.com
secretName: example-com-tls
Two listeners with the same Secret name¶
The same Secret name can be re-used in multiple TLS blocks, regardless of the hostname. Let us imagine that you have these two listeners:
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1alpha2
kind: Gateway
metadata:
name: example
annotations:
cert-manager.io/issuer: my-issuer
spec:
gatewayClassName: foo
listeners:
# Listener 1.
- hostname: example.com
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
routes:
kind: HTTPRoute
parentRefs:
- name: example
kind: Gateway
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
# Listener 2: Same Secret name as Listener 1, with a different hostname.
- hostname: *.example.com
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
routes:
kind: HTTPRoute
parentRefs:
- name: example
kind: Gateway
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
# Listener 3: also same Secret name, except the hostname is also the same.
- hostname: *.example.com
port: 8443
protocol: HTTPS
routes:
kind: HTTPRoute
parentRefs:
- name: example
kind: Gateway
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: example-com-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
# Listener 4: different Secret name.
- hostname: site.org
port: 443
protocol: HTTPS
routes:
kind: HTTPRoute
parentRefs:
- name: example
kind: Gateway
tls:
mode: Terminate
certificateRefs:
- name: site-org-tls
kind: Secret
group: core
cert-manager will create two Certificates since two Secret names are used: example-com-tls
and site-org-tls
. Note the Certificate's dnsNames
contains a single occurrence of *.example.com
for both listener 2 and 3 (the hostname
values are de-duplicated).
The two Certificates look like this:
apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
name: example-com-tls
spec:
issuerRef:
name: my-issuer
kind: Issuer
group: cert-manager.io
dnsNames:
- example.com # From listener 1.
- *.example.com # From listener 2 and 3.
secretName: example-com-tls
---
apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
name: site-org-tls
spec:
issuerRef:
name: my-issuer
kind: Issuer
group: cert-manager.io
dnsNames:
- site.org # From listener 4.
secretName: site-org-tls
Supported Annotations¶
If you are migrating to Gateway resources from Ingress resources, be aware that there are some differences between the annotations for Ingress resources versus the annotations for Gateway resources.
The Gateway resource supports the following annotations for generating Certificate resources:
-
cert-manager.io/issuer
: the name of an Issuer to acquire the certificate required for this Gateway. The Issuer must be in the same namespace as the Gateway resource. -
cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer
: the name of a ClusterIssuer to acquire the Certificate required for this Gateway. It does not matter which namespace your Gateway resides, asClusterIssuers
are non-namespaced resources. -
cert-manager.io/issuer-kind
: the kind of the external issuer resource, for exampleAWSPCACIssuer
. This is only necessary for out-of-tree issuers. -
cert-manager.io/issuer-group
: the API group of the external issuer controller, for exampleawspca.cert-manager.io
. This is only necessary for out-of-tree issuers. -
cert-manager.io/common-name
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.commonName
for the Certificate to be generated. -
cert-manager.io/duration
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.duration
field for the Certificate to be generated. -
cert-manager.io/renew-before
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.renewBefore
field for the Certificate to be generated. -
cert-manager.io/usages
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.usages
field for the Certificate to be generated. Pass a string with comma-separated values i.e "key agreement,digital signature, server auth" -
cert-manager.io/revision-history-limit
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.revisionHistoryLimit
field to limit the number of CertificateRequests to be kept for a Certificate. Minimum value is 1. If unset all CertificateRequests will be kept. -
cert-manager.io/private-key-algorithm
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.privateKey.algorithm
field to set the algorithm for private key generation for a Certificate. Valid values areRSA
,ECDSA
andEd25519
. If unset an algorithmRSA
will be used. -
cert-manager.io/private-key-encoding
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.privateKey.encoding
field to set the encoding for private key generation for a Certificate. Valid values arePKCS1
andPKCS8
. If unset an algorithmPKCS1
will be used. -
cert-manager.io/private-key-size
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.privateKey.size
field to set the size of the private key for a Certificate. If algorithm is set toRSA
, valid values are2048
,4096
or8192
, and will default to2048
if not specified. If algorithm is set toECDSA
, valid values are256
,384
or521
, and will default to256
if not specified. If algorithm is set toEd25519
, size is ignored. -
cert-manager.io/private-key-rotation-policy
: (optional) this annotation allows you to configurespec.privateKey.rotationPolicy
field to set the rotation policy of the private key for a Certificate. Valid values areNever
andAlways
. If unset a rotation policyNever
will be used.
