Kubernetes workloads rely on public IP addresses for egress traffic via SNAT connections. By default, Kubernetes nodes provide a limited number of SNAT ports (1024 per node), often insufficient for workloads requiring extensive outbound connectivity. Allocating additional IP addresses statically for SNAT purposes in large clusters can lead to significant inefficiencies and wastage of limited public IPv4 resources. This session introduces an innovative SNAT port and IP address management solution developed for AKS multi-cluster, multi-tenant platforms, demonstrating how optimized IP allocation significantly reduces IP address wastage and associated costs.
