      Goal

      Allow VMs connected through their secondary networks to be addressable by their domain names.

      User Stories

      • As a developer,
        I want to address machines in the network using their domain names,
        so I don't rely on IP addresses specific to given environment.
        For example, something like ping -4 interfacename.vmname.namespace.vm.clustername.domainname should resolve to the relevant IP address.
        I would not mind if ping -4 interfacename.podname.namespace.pods.clustername.domainname works, too.
      • As a developer,
        I want this feature to be opt-in per interface,
        since not all interfaces are available from the outside, or meant to be used by clients.

      Non-Requirements

      • <List of things not included in this epic, to alleviate any doubt raised during the grooming process.>
      • It is expected that the secondary network is already available to the client

      Notes

      • An implementation may require the cluster-admin to request a NS entry in the organizational DNS, delegating name resolution of vms.clustername.domainname to the API IP address of the cluster, where CoreDNS would be running.
      • We could also consider doing it for internal secondary network
      • This should work for L3 (unlike services)

      Q&A

      • Addressable from outside the cluster? - Yes
      • From inside the cluster? - This is secondary, nice to have
      • Will be pod network connected? - Not a must
      • Cluster DNS or outside? - Customer does not care
