Configure Networking
Configure BGP peering
Configure BGP peering with full mesh, node-specific peering, ToR, and/or Calico route reflectors.
Configure BGP peering with nested clusters running on KubeVirt VMs
Configure BGP peering with nested clusters running on KubeVirt VMs
Overlay networking
Configure Calico to use IP in IP or VXLAN overlay networking so the underlying network doesn’t need to understand pod addresses.
Advertise Kubernetes service IP addresses
Configure Calico to advertise Kubernetes service cluster IPs and external IPs outside the cluster using BGP.
Configure MTU to maximize network performance
Optimize network performance for workloads by configuring the MTU in Calico to best suit your underlying network.
Configure outgoing NAT
Configure networking to perform outbound NAT for connections from pods to outside of the cluster.
Use IPVS kube-proxy
Use IPVS kube-proxy for performance improvements.
Accelerate Istio network performance
Use Calico to accelerate network performance of traffic through the Istio Envoy sidecar using eBPF.
Use a specific MAC address for a pod
Specify the MAC address for a pod instead of allowing the operating system to assign one
Use NodeLocal DNSCache in your cluster
Install NodeLocal DNSCache
Configure QoS Controls
Configure QoS (Quality of Service) Controls to limit ingress and/or egress bandwidth, packet rate and number of connections of Calico workloads.
Add Maglev load balancing to a service
