## 🏗️ Architecture
### hostNetwork Direct Access Design
This example uses a **single-file approach** with integrated components:
```
🌍 Internet (Mycelium Clients)
↓
🌐 Mycelium IPv6 Network (Port 80)
↓
🖥️ hostNetwork Pod (direct IPv6 interface binding)
↓
📊 Custom Website Content (ConfigMap-managed)
↓
🔄 nginx Web Server (custom content, health endpoints)
```
1. **Deployment** - Pod with nginx and custom content
2. **ConfigMaps** - HTML content and nginx configuration
3. **Service** - NodePort for external accessibility
### Key Features
**Network Flow:** `Direct IPv6 → nginx:8080 → Custom HTML`
#### **Kubernetes Deployment with hostNetwork**
**Key Innovation:** Uses `hostNetwork: true` for direct access to Mycelium IPv6 interfaces.
## 🔧 Files Explanation
### mycelium-website-nodeport.yaml
```yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: mycelium-website
spec:
replicas: 1
template:
spec:
hostNetwork: true # Direct IPv6 interface binding
hostNetwork: true # Direct IPv6 access
containers:
- name: nginx
image: nginx:alpine
ports:
- containerPort: 80 # Standard web port
hostPort: 80 # Direct host binding
```
#### **Dynamic IPv6 Discovery**
The `update-content.sh` script automatically discovers Mycelium IPv6 addresses from your cluster:
```bash
# Run the script to update content with current IPv6 addresses
./update-content.sh
# The script will:
# 1. Query kubectl for cluster node IPv6 addresses
# 2. Generate HTML with dynamic address discovery
# 3. Update the ConfigMap automatically
# 4. Show website content with current cluster state
```
#### **Custom Website Content**
The deployment includes a professional website with:
- Modern HTML design with Mycelium Cloud branding
- Responsive layout with gradient backgrounds
- Interactive IPv6 address detection
- Real-time timestamp updates
- Professional web interface
#### **Content Management**
```yaml
- containerPort: 8080
hostPort: 8080
volumeMounts:
- name: html-content
mountPath: /usr/share/nginx/html
- name: nginx-config
mountPath: /etc/nginx/conf.d
volumes:
- name: html-content
configMap:
name: mycelium-website-content # Custom website content
name: mycelium-website-content
- name: nginx-config
configMap:
name: mycelium-nginx-config # nginx configuration
name: mycelium-nginx-config
```
## 🌟 Direct IPv6 Access Benefits
**What it does:**
- Creates 1 pod with nginx and custom website content
- Uses `hostNetwork: true` for direct IPv6 interface access
- Includes ConfigMaps for dynamic content management
- Dual-stack nginx (IPv4 + IPv6) configuration
### **Direct Interface Binding**
- **hostNetwork: true**: Pod directly binds to host network interface
- **IPv6 Address Access**: Gets Mycelium IPv6 address from host node
- **Simplified Architecture**: No service layer needed for IPv6 access
- **Direct Connectivity**: External clients connect directly to pod
## 🌐 Access Methods
### **Performance Advantages**
- **Zero Latency**: Direct interface binding, no service proxy overhead
- **Full IPv6 Support**: Direct access to Mycelium IPv6 addresses
- **Simple Deployment**: Single pod with hostNetwork configuration
- **Production Ready**: Standard nginx configuration with health endpoints
### Method 1: Direct IPv6 (Primary - Recommended)
### **Global Accessibility**
```bash
# Access directly via any Mycelium IPv6 address
curl http://[552:5984:2d97:72dc:ff0f:39ef:6ec:a48c]:80
# Get your pod's IPv6 address
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=mycelium-website -o name | head -1)
IPV6=$(kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- ip addr show | grep "476:\|51d:\|552:" | head -1 | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d'/' -f1)
# Access your website
curl -6 "http://[$IPV6]:8080/"
curl -6 "http://[$IPV6]:8080/health"
# Or in browser: http://[YOUR-IPV6]:8080/
```
## 🔧 Testing & Verification
**Why this works:**
- `hostNetwork: true` gives direct access to host IPv6 interfaces
- nginx listens on both IPv4 and IPv6
- Mycelium provides globally routable IPv6 addresses
- No port translation or proxy needed
### Method 2: Health Check Verification
### **✅ CONFIRMED: IPv6 Connectivity Test**
```bash
# ✅ VERIFIED: Direct IPv6 connectivity working!
curl -v http://[552:5984:2d97:72dc:ff0f:39ef:6ec:a48c]:80
# Test health endpoint
curl -6 "http://[YOUR-IPV6]:8080/health"
# Expected: "healthy"
# Expected output shows successful connection:
# * Connected to 552:5984:2d97:72dc:ff0f:39ef:6ec:a48c (552:5984:2d97:72dc:ff0f:39ef:6ec:a48c) port 80 (#0)
# < HTTP/1.1 200 OK (or 404 if serving default content)
# Test main page (should return 3975+ bytes)

```bash
# Check if pods are running
kubectl get pods -l app=mycelium-website
#### **Pod Won't Start**
# Check service details
kubectl get svc mycelium-website-service
# Check what's deployed
kubectl get all -l app=mycelium-website
# Verify nginx is listening on both IPv4 and IPv6
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=mycelium-website -o name | head -1)
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- netstat -tuln | grep 8080
```
### Common Issues
#### IPv6 Binding Problems
```bash
# Problem: nginx only listening on IPv4
# Check current binding:
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- netstat -tuln | grep 8080
# Should show:
# tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
# tcp 0 0 :::8080 :::* LISTEN (IPv6)
# If missing IPv6, restart the deployment:
kubectl delete pod $POD_NAME
```
#### Pod Not Starting
```bash
# Check pod status and events
kubectl describe pod -l app=nginx-mycelium
kubectl describe pod -l app=mycelium-website
# Check node resource availability
kubectl get nodes
# Check pod logs
kubectl logs -l app=mycelium-website
# Look for scheduling issues
kubectl get events --sort-by='.lastTimestamp'
# Check nginx configuration
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- cat /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
```
#### **IPv6 Access Not Working**
#### IPv6 Not Accessible
```bash
# Verify IPv6 address exists
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- ip addr show | grep "476:\|51d:\|552:"
# Test IPv6 connectivity
ping 51d:3596:6cc3:81e7:ff0f:d546:3737:4c8c
ping6 [YOUR-IPV6]
# Check if pods are running
kubectl get pods -l app=nginx-mycelium
# Verify service configuration
kubectl get svc nginx-mycelium-service -o wide
# Test nginx inside pod
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- curl -s http://localhost:8080/health
```
#### **Load Balancing Issues**
#### Content Not Loading
```bash
# Check all pods are ready
kubectl get pods -l app=nginx-mycelium
# Verify ConfigMaps are mounted
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- ls -la /usr/share/nginx/html/
# Verify endpoints are healthy
kubectl get endpoints nginx-mycelium-service
# Check actual content
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- cat /usr/share/nginx/html/index.html | head -10
# Check pod logs for errors
kubectl logs -l app=nginx-mycelium
# Verify nginx config is loaded
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- nginx -t
```
## 🎯 Best Practices
## 🛠️ Common Operations
### **Deployment Strategy**
1. **Start Small**: Deploy 1 replica initially
2. **Test Connectivity**: Verify IPv6 access works
3. **Scale Gradually**: Increase replicas based on traffic
4. **Monitor Performance**: Watch resource usage and response times
### **Content Management**
- **Static Files**: Update `index.html` for content changes
- **Volume Mounts**: Use ConfigMaps for dynamic content
- **Health Checks**: Implement proper liveness/readiness probes
### **Security Considerations**
- **No Authentication**: Open access for demonstration purposes
- **Rate Limiting**: Consider adding nginx rate limiting for production
- **HTTPS**: Use TF Gateway CRDs for SSL certificates
## 🚀 Advanced Features
### **Custom Content**
Replace the `index.html` with your own content:
### Updating Website Content
```bash
# Update content
kubectl create configmap nginx-content --from-file=index.html=custom.html
# Update the ConfigMap with new HTML content
kubectl create configmap mycelium-website-content \
--from-file=index.html=./new-website.html \
--dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
# Rollout update
kubectl rollout restart deployment/nginx-mycelium
# Restart pod to pick up changes
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=mycelium-website -o name | head -1)
kubectl delete pod $POD_NAME
```
### **Additional Services**
Add more services following the same pattern:
### Scaling
```bash
# Apply additional nginx services
kubectl apply -f additional-services.yaml
# Scale to 2 replicas (each gets different IPv6)
kubectl scale deployment mycelium-website --replicas=2
# Each service gets its own LoadBalancer with IPv6
# Check distribution across nodes
kubectl get pods -o wide -l app=mycelium-website
```
### **TF Gateway Integration**
For custom domains and HTTPS:
```yaml
# Use TF Gateway CRD for public domain
apiVersion: ingress.grid.tf/v1
kind: TFGW
### Monitoring
```bash
# View nginx logs
kubectl logs -f deployment/mycelium-website
# Check resource usage
kubectl top pod -l app=mycelium-website
# Monitor IPv6 addresses
watch 'kubectl get pods -o wide -l app=mycelium-website'
```
### IPv6 Address Discovery
```bash
# Get all IPv6 addresses for the website pod
POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods -l app=mycelium-website -o name | head -1)
kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- ip addr show | grep "inet6" | grep "scope global"
# Test multiple IPv6 addresses
for ipv6 in $(kubectl exec $POD_NAME -- ip addr show | grep "476:\|51d:\|552:" | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d'/' -f1); do
echo "Testing IPv6: $ipv6"
curl -6 -m 2 "http://[$ipv6]:8080/health" && echo " - SUCCESS" || echo " - FAILED"
done
```
## 🧹 Cleanup
When you're done testing:
```bash
# Delete the entire deployment
kubectl delete -f mycelium-website-nodeport.yaml
# Verify cleanup
kubectl get all -l app=mycelium-website
# Remove any lingering ConfigMaps (optional)
kubectl delete configmap mycelium-website-content mycelium-nginx-config
```
