How to Fix VIP Connection Issues in Cluster API on VMware?

Asked By CuriousCoder42 On

I'm trying to use the Cluster API to set up a Kubernetes cluster on VMware. I have a Kind cluster running on my workstation that I want to use as a management cluster for provisioning. The VMware cluster is in my local network with all ESXIs and VMs having IPs in the subnet 192.168.230.0/24.

Here's how I've set things up:
- **VMware IP Range**: 192.168.230.0/24
- **Control Plane Endpoint IP**: 192.168.230.58 (this is the virtual IP for the workload cluster)
- **Network Setup**: I'm using a standard switch and do not have resource pools or NSX configured.

But I'm facing an issue—my Kind cluster can't connect to the control plane VIP at 192.168.230.58, even after provisioning a VM with DHCP. Has anyone experienced this or have any hints on what I might need to do to get connectivity?

You might want to adjust the podcidr setting in your config. It seems like the current pod CIDR (192.168.0.0/16) could be conflicting with your external network. Changing this to something else might resolve the connectivity issue with the VIP.
