Configuring a Blocklist/Trustlist Access Policy for a LoadBalancer Ingress

You can add IP addresses to a trustlist or blocklist to control access to a listener of a LoadBalancer ingress.

• Trustlist: Only the IP addresses in the list can access the listener.

• Blocklist: The IP addresses in the list are not allowed to access the listener.

Prerequisites

• A Kubernetes cluster is available and the cluster version meets the following requirements:

  • v1.23: v1.23.12-r0 or later

  • v1.25: v1.25.7-r0 or later

  • v1.27: v1.27.4-r0 or later

  • v1.28: v1.28.2-r0 or later

  • Other clusters of later versions

• An IP address group has been created on the ELB console. For details, see .

Using the CCE Console

1. Log in to the CCE console and click the cluster name to access the cluster console.

2. Choose Services & Ingresses in the navigation pane, click the Ingresses tab, and click Create Ingress in the upper right corner.

3. Configure access control parameters for the ingress.

   • Allow all IP addresses: No access control is configured.

   • Trustlist: Only the selected IP address group can access the load balancer.

   • Blocklist: The selected IP address group cannot access the load balancer.

   For details about how to configure other parameters, see Creating a LoadBalancer Ingress on the Console.

4. Click OK.

Using kubectl

An example YAML file of an ingress created using an existing load balancer is as follows:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: ingress-test
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/elb.id: <your_elb_id>                    # Load balancer ID. Replace it with the actual value.
    kubernetes.io/elb.class: performance                   # Load balancer type
    kubernetes.io/elb.port: '80'                           # External port of the load balancer listener
    kubernetes.io/elb.acl-id: <your_acl_id>               # ID of an IP address group for accessing a load balancer
    kubernetes.io/elb.acl-status: 'on'                  # Enable access control.
    kubernetes.io/elb.acl-type: 'white'                   # Trustlist for access control
spec:
  rules:
  - host: ''
    http:
      paths:
      - path: '/'
        backend:
          service:
            name: <your_service_name>  # Replace it with the name of your target Service.
            port:
              number: 8080             # Replace 8080 with the port number of your target Service.
        property:
          ingress.beta.kubernetes.io/url-match-mode: STARTS_WITH

  ingressClassName: cce

Table 1 Annotations for ELB access control

Parameter	Type	Description
kubernetes.io/elb.acl-id	String	If this parameter is not specified, CCE does not modify access control on the ELB. If this parameter is left empty, all IP addresses are allowed to access the load balancer. If this parameter is set to the IP address group ID of the load balancer, access control is enabled and you need to configure an IP address blocklist or trustlist for the load balancer. Additionally, you need to configure both kubernetes.io/elb.acl-status and kubernetes.io/elb.acl-type. How to obtain: Log in to the console. In the Service List, choose Networking > Elastic Load Balance. On the Network Console, choose Elastic Load Balance > IP Address Groups and copy the ID of the target IP address group.
kubernetes.io/elb.acl-status	String	This parameter is mandatory when you configure an IP address blocklist or trustlist for a load balancer. Options: on: Access control is enabled. off: Access control is disabled.
kubernetes.io/elb.acl-type	String	This parameter is mandatory when you configure an IP address blocklist or trustlist for a load balancer. Options: black: indicates a blocklist. The selected IP address group cannot access the load balancer. white: indicates a trustlist. Only the selected IP address group can access the load balancer.
