KubeVirt allows running VMs and containers on Kubernetes, but traditional Kubernetes networking - which uses NAT (Network Address Translation) to expose workloads outside the cluster - can still lead to complex, opaque, and brittle setups that prevent direct integration and reachability.
This presentation introduces a BGP-based solution to simplify KubeVirt networking. Kubernetes nodes dynamically exchange routes with the provider network, exposing workloads via their actual IPs, eliminating NAT and manual configurations.
This BGP approach simplifies network design, speeds up troubleshooting, and ensures consistent connectivity for virtualized workloads.
Attendees will learn practical, standard networking principles to simplify real-world Kubernetes environments and gain immediate, actionable insights to improve platform connectivity.
