## Securing your installation even more
The defaults for kubeadm may not work for everyone. This section documents how to tighten up a kubeadm install
at the cost of some usability.
### Turning off auto-approval of Node Client Certificates
By default, there is an CSR auto-approver enabled that basically approves any client certificate request
for a kubelet when a Bootstrap Token was used when authenticating. If you don't want the cluster to
automatically approve kubelet client certs, you can turn it off by executing this command:
```console
$ kubectl delete clusterrole kubeadm:node-autoapprove-bootstrap
```
After that, `kubeadm join` will block until the admin has manually approved the CSR in flight:
```console
$ kubectl get csr
NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION
node-csr-c69HXe7aYcqkS1bKmH4faEnHAWxn6i2bHZ2mD04jZyQ 18s system:bootstrap:878f07 Pending
$ kubectl certificate approve node-csr-c69HXe7aYcqkS1bKmH4faEnHAWxn6i2bHZ2mD04jZyQ
certificatesigningrequest "node-csr-c69HXe7aYcqkS1bKmH4faEnHAWxn6i2bHZ2mD04jZyQ" approved
$ kubectl get csr
NAME AGE REQUESTOR CONDITION
node-csr-c69HXe7aYcqkS1bKmH4faEnHAWxn6i2bHZ2mD04jZyQ 1m system:bootstrap:878f07 Approved,Issued
```
Only after `kubectl certificate approve` has been run, `kubeadm join` can proceed.
### Turning off public access to the cluster-info ConfigMap
In order to achieve the joining flow using the token as the only piece of validation information, a
public ConfigMap with some data needed for validation of the master's identity is exposed publicly by
default. While there is no private data in this ConfigMap, some users are sensitive and wish to turn
it off regardless. Doing so will disable the ability to use the `--discovery-token` flag of the
`kubeadm join` flow. Here are the steps to do so:
Fetch the `cluster-info` file from the API Server:
```console
$ kubectl -n kube-public get cm cluster-info -oyaml | grep "kubeconfig:" -A11 | grep "apiVersion" -A10 | sed "s/ //" | tee cluster-info.yaml
apiVersion: v1
clusters:
- cluster:
certificate-authority-data: <ca-cert>
server: https://<ip>:<port>
name: ""
contexts: []
current-context: ""
kind: Config
preferences: {}
users: []
```
You can then use the `cluster-info.yaml` file as an argument to `kubeadm join --discovery-file`.
Turning of public access to the `cluster-info` ConfigMap:
```console
$ kubectl -n kube-public delete rolebinding kubeadm:bootstrap-signer-clusterinfo
```
These command should be run after `kubeadm init` but before `kubeadm join`.

## Environment variables
There are some environment variables that modify the way that kubeadm works.
Most users will have no need to set these. These environment variables are a
short-term solution, eventually they will be integrated in the kubeadm
configuration file.
| Variable | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `KUBE_KUBERNETES_DIR` | `/etc/kubernetes` | Where most configuration files are written to and read from |
| `KUBE_HYPERKUBE_IMAGE` | | If set, use a single hyperkube image with this name. If not set, individual images per server component will be used. |
| `KUBE_ETCD_IMAGE` | `gcr.io/google_containers/etcd-<arch>:3.0.17` | The etcd container image to use. |
| `KUBE_REPO_PREFIX` | `gcr.io/google_containers` | The image prefix for all images that are used. |
If `KUBE_KUBERNETES_DIR` is specified, you may need to rewrite the arguments of the kubelet.
(e.g. --kubeconfig, --pod-manifest-path)
If `KUBE_REPO_PREFIX` is specified, you may need to set the kubelet flag `--pod-infra-container-image` which specifies which pause image to use.
Defaults to `gcr.io/google_containers/pause-${ARCH}:3.0` where `${ARCH}` can be one of `amd64`, `arm`, `arm64`, `ppc64le` or `s390x`.
```bash
cat > /etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service.d/20-pod-infra-image.conf <<EOF
[Service]
Environment="KUBELET_EXTRA_ARGS=--pod-infra-container-image=<your-image>"
EOF
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart kubelet
```
If you want to use kubeadm with an http proxy, you may need to configure it to
support http_proxy, https_proxy, or no_proxy.
For example, if your kube master node IP address is 10.18.17.16 and you have a
proxy which supports both http/https on 10.18.17.16 port 8080, you can use the
following command:
```bash
export PROXY_PORT=8080
export PROXY_IP=10.18.17.16
export http_proxy=http://$PROXY_IP:$PROXY_PORT
export HTTP_PROXY=$http_proxy
export https_proxy=$http_proxy
export HTTPS_PROXY=$http_proxy
export no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,localaddress,.localdomain.com,example.com,10.18.17.16"
```
Remember to change `proxy_ip` and add a kube master node IP address to
`no_proxy`.
## Use Kubeadm with other CRI runtimes
Since [Kubernetes 1.6 release](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#node-components-1), Kubernetes container runtimes have been transferred to using CRI by default. Currently, the build-in container runtime is Docker which is enabled by build-in `dockershim` in `kubelet`.

## Releases and release notes
## Running kubeadm without an internet connection
If you already have kubeadm installed and want to upgrade, run `apt-get update
&& apt-get upgrade` or `yum update` to get the latest version of kubeadm.

the following images are required for the cluster works will be automatically
pulled by the kubelet if they don't exist locally while `kubeadm init` is initializing

## Cloudprovider integrations (experimental)
Enabling specific cloud providers is a common request. This currently requires
manual configuration and is therefore not yet fully supported. If you wish to do
so, edit the kubeadm dropin for the kubelet service
(`/etc/systemd/system/kubelet.service.d/10-kubeadm.conf`) on all nodes,
including the master. If your cloud provider requires any extra packages
installed on the host, for example for volume mounting/unmounting, install those
packages.
Specify the `--cloud-provider` flag for the kubelet and set it to the cloud of your
choice. If your cloudprovider requires a configuration file, create the file
`/etc/kubernetes/cloud-config` on every node. The exact format and content of
that file depends on the requirements imposed by your cloud provider. If you use
the `/etc/kubernetes/cloud-config` file, you must append it to the kubelet
arguments as follows: `--cloud-config=/etc/kubernetes/cloud-config`
Note that there is most likely other per-provider configuration that may be needed
(IAM roles for AWS) that is currently underdocumented.
Next, specify the cloud provider in the kubeadm config file. Create a file called
`kubeadm.conf` with the following contents:
``` yaml
kind: MasterConfiguration
apiVersion: kubeadm.k8s.io/v1alpha1
cloudProvider: <cloud provider>
```
Lastly, run `kubeadm init --config=kubeadm.conf` to bootstrap your cluster with
the cloud provider.
This workflow is not yet fully supported, however we hope to make it extremely
easy to spin up clusters with cloud providers in the future. (See [this
proposal](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/pull/128) for more
information) The [Kubelet Dynamic
Settings](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/29459) feature may also
help to fully automate this process in the future.
