Asked by caffeinestorm
When trying to set up firewall rules for a Load Balancer in front of my Kubernetes cluster, I was using the annotation mentioned here: https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/kubernetes/how-to/configure-load-balancers/#allow-rules
I wanted to only allow traffic from our VPC. It has a subnet of 10.200.0.0/16 but setting service.beta.kubernetes.io/do-loadbalancer-allow-rules: "cidr:10.200.0.0/16" failed. When looking at kubernetes events for my service, I saw that the Load Balancer was “ensuring” but never became “ensured”.
I tested cidr:11.200.0.0/16 and the Load Balancer appeared to work as expected; my services reported that the Load Balancer had become “ensured”.
Is there a way to use the VPC’s CIDR block?

Hey @caffeinestorm,
Is your Kubernetes cluster running version
1.24.8-do.0or newer? If not this might explain the problem.If this is not the case, I could suggest reaching out to the DigitalOcean support team who might be able to investigate this further for you:
Hope that helps!
