Access resource in a peered private network from AKS cluster using Kubenet. Load Balancer, NodePort, IPCluster?

Hello,

haven't found an answer for such case. I have AKS Cluster using Kubenet as networking setup. I need to access a resource from a VNET (MQTT broker basically to subscribe to). Is that doable with AKS + Kubenet?

My questions are:

  1. Is that enough to set up peering in AKS Cluster -> Peering section in Azure Portal?
  2. If yes then how PODs should be configured to access external resource in the peered network? Should Service be Load Balancer, NodePort or (probably not) ClusterIP?

    Hi @Michal Lechowski ,
    Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft QnA.
    Firstly, apologies for the delay in response.
    I understand you want access resources in a peered network from an AKS cluster. In a Kubenet setup, pods can access resources in the peered network, just how a regular VM can.
    It is recommended to use and internal load balancer to access resources from the peered network.

    Hope this helps.
