In this lab you will install configure Kubernetes dashboard.

Installation

Run the following command to deploy the dashboard:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.7.0/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml

Create a proxy to the dashboard:

kubectl proxy

To access the dashboard in your web browser, click the following link: http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/kubernetes-dashboard/services/https:kubernetes-dashboard:/proxy/#/

output A login page asking for kubeconfig file or a token

A service account and its credentials are needed to login.

Service Account creation

Create the service account with following command:

cat > dashboard-adminuser.yaml <<EOF 
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: admin-user
  namespace: kubernetes-dashboard
EOF

kubectl apply -f dashboard-adminuser.yaml

Next, add the cluster binding rules to it with this command:

kubectl create clusterrolebinding dashboard-admin -n default --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kubernetes-dashboard:admin-user

Copy the secret token required for your dashboard login using the below command:

kubectl -n kubernetes-dashboard create token admin-user
