Introduction​

Welcome to part 4 of the dual-stack series! In parts 1, 2, and 3, we walked through how to set up dual-stack networking on a Proxmox server using our Internet Provider. We also showed you how to deploy RKE2 Kubernetes clusters and share both IPv4 and IPv6 services across them. Now, in the final part of the series, we are diving into some of the most commonly used features of Cilium for a home lab setup! Let’s get started!

Introduction​

Welcome to part 3 of the dual-stack series! In part 1 and part 2, we discovered how to enable dual-stack on a Proxmox server using our Internet Provider and deploy RKE2 clusters. In today's post, we continue our journey and enable a Cilium Cluster Mesh between two RKE2 clusters. The goal is to share IPv4 and IPv6 services between the different clusters effortlessly. Let’s dive in!

Introduction​

Welcome to part 2 of the dual-stack series! In part 1, we covered how to enable IPv6 Prefix allocation using pfsense on Proxmox with Fritz!Box as a home router. The setup allows virtual machines in a dedicated interface to receive an IPv4 and an IPv6 address. If you have completed part 1, you can continue with the dual-stack RKE2 setup powered by Cilium.

Introduction​

Welcome to the first post in the dual-stack deployments series! In part 1 of the series will set the stage for everything to come. Dual-stack is when a machine can talk both IPv4 and IPv6. Part 1 aims to guide users through enabling and configuring IPv6 Prefix allocation for virtual machines in a Proxmox environment, using pfsense. The setup will be used later on for Kubernetes Deployments, Service Mesh and Global Service Sharing powered by Cilium.
