Support for concealing a network load balancer's private IP address with Kubernetes Engine
- Services: Kubernetes Engine
- Release Date: January 29, 2025
When OCI Kubernetes Engine provisions a public Oracle Cloud Infrastructure network load balancer for a Kubernetes service of type LoadBalancer, the Network Load Balancer service assigns both a public IP address and a private IP address to the network load balancer. In some situations, you might want to expose only the network load balancer's public IP address, and to hide the private IP address.
You can now use an annotation to specify that the kubectl get service
command (or similar) only returns the network load balancer's public IP address.
