Description Mario Vázquez 2021-11-16 11:24:47 UTC 
Description of problem:

I have a customer using the ovn-kubernetes network provider and needs to use ClusterIP, but it doesn't work properly.

Although internalTrafficPolicy is set to Local, it works as set to Cluster.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

4.9

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare a deployment that has pods on many nodes (i.e: apache server)
2. Create a clusterIP service and set internalTrafficPolicy to "local"
3. Try to reach the apache svc from one pod and check which pod gets the request, it should end up in pod/s in the same node.

Actual results:

Requests are load-balanced without honoring the internalTrafficPolicy.

Expected results:

Requests are sent to local endpoints to the node (if any).

Hi,

So we know that the feature ITP became alpha in v1.21  https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service-traffic-policy/ and 4.9 openshift is v1.22 k8s. However we haven't yet implemented internaltrafficpolicy=local on OVN-K yet and its something we intend to support. We acknowledge this bug and will work towards a fix.
