FAQPage Schema
How do I configure automatic mTLS for a Kubernetes service mesh?

Bootstrapping Linkerd service mesh in Kubernetes requires applying installation and validation templates. This setup establishes the mesh control plane and enables automatic proxy injection for your workloads.

How do I set up traffic splits for canary deployments in Linkerd?

Set up canary deployments by applying TrafficSplit templates to your Kubernetes cluster. This routes a specified percentage of traffic to different service versions, enabling safe rollout testing.

What is the best way to define per-route metrics and timeouts in Linkerd?

Configure zero-trust access control by applying Server Authorization templates in Linkerd. This restricts inbound traffic to specific pods, ensuring only authorized clients can communicate within the mesh.

Can I use Linkerd for zero-trust access control in Kubernetes?

Yes, implement zero-trust access control by applying Server Authorization templates in Linkerd. This restricts inbound traffic to specific pods, ensuring only authorized clients can communicate within the mesh.

How do I manage HTTPRoute configuration for flexible routing in a service mesh?

Manage flexible routing by applying HTTPRoute configuration templates alongside Linkerd service profiles. This enables dynamic traffic steering and per-route policy enforcement within your Kubernetes cluster.
