Kube Auth

Requirements

• Have kubectl working against minikube

Theory

• https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/authentication/
• https://jvns.ca/blog/2017/08/05/how-kubernetes-certificates-work/

Practice

• Figure out how kubernetes authentication works

Try by running the following commands:

• kubectl config view
• kubectl cluster-info
• kubectl proxy
• minikube dashboard --url
• kube auth can-i [verb] [resource]

Try figuring out what command line flags the minikube server was started with and use that to figure out what authentication methods does it support.
