SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides deep packet inspection and traffic analysis for Kubernetes clusters, simplifying the troubleshooting of network connectivity and performance issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Real-time Traffic Capture: Capture L4/L7 traffic across pods with advanced filtering.
  • TLS Decryption: Automatically decrypts TLS/HTTPS traffic without manual key management.
  • Pcap Export: Export captured traffic for detailed analysis in Wireshark.
  • Use Case: Troubleshoot a slow API response by capturing traffic between the frontend and backend services, identifying latency bottlenecks, and analyzing error payloads.

Quick Start

Use the kubeshark-traffic skill to capture traffic from the frontend pod for 5 minutes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform deep packet inspection on Kubernetes pods to troubleshoot service-to-service communication?

You can capture L4/L7 traffic across pods using advanced filtering to identify network connectivity issues and analyze payloads. This approach pinpoints failures in containerized environments without requiring manual key management.

Can I decrypt TLS traffic automatically in a Kubernetes cluster?

Yes, you can automatically decrypt TLS and HTTPS traffic in a Kubernetes cluster without manual key management. This simplifies troubleshooting encrypted service-to-service communication by exposing the unencrypted payloads.

How do I export Kubernetes network traffic to a pcap file for Wireshark analysis?

Export Kubernetes network traffic to a pcap file by capturing real-time data across the desired pods and using the export function. This outputs a file ready for detailed offline analysis in Wireshark.

Do I need Kubeshark installed to capture L4/L7 traffic for performance bottlenecks?

Yes, you need Kubeshark installed and an MCP endpoint access to capture L4/L7 traffic for performance bottlenecks. This setup provides the real-time data and pcap export capabilities required for incident forensics.

What is the best way to analyze a slow API response between frontend and backend pods?

The best way to analyze a slow API response is to capture network traffic between the frontend and backend pods to identify latency bottlenecks. This isolates the delayed service-to-service communication and analyzes error payloads.
