## Overview
Add-ons extend the functionality of Kubernetes in a pluggable way.
Add-ons extend the functionality of Kubernetes.
This page lists some of the available add-ons and links to their respective installation instructions.
## Networking and Network Policy
* [Weave Net](https://github.com/weaveworks/weave-kube) is an easy, fast and reliable pod network that carries on working in the face of network partitions, does not depend on a database, and supports Kubernetes policy.
* [Calico](https://github.com/projectcalico/calico-containers/tree/master/docs/cni/kubernetes/manifests/kubeadm) is a simple, scalable, secure L3 networking and network policy provider.
* [Canal](https://github.com/tigera/canal/tree/master/k8s-install/kubeadm) unites Flannel and Calico, providing cloud native networking and network policy.
* [Weave Net](https://github.com/weaveworks/weave-kube) provides networking and network policy, will carry on working on both sides of a network partition, and does not require an external database.

## Visualization & Control
* [Weave Scope](https://www.weave.works/documentation/scope-latest-installing/#k8s) is a tool for graphically visualizing your containers, pods, services etc. Use it in conjunction with a [Weave Cloud account](https://cloud.weave.works/) or host the UI yourself.
* [Dashboard](https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard#kubernetes-dashboard) is a dashboard web interface for Kubernetes.

This quickstart will show you how to easily install a secure Kubernetes cluster on machines running Ubuntu 16.04 or CentOS 7, using a tool called `kubeadm` which is part of Kubernetes.
This quickstart shows you how to easily install a secure Kubernetes cluster on machines running Ubuntu 16.04 or CentOS 7.
The installation uses a tool called `kubeadm` which is part of Kubernetes 1.4.
This process should work with local VMs, physical servers and/or cloud servers.
It is intended to be simple enough that you can easily integrate its use into your own automation (Terraform, Chef, Puppet, etc).

### (4/4) Installing a pod network
You must install a pod network add-on so that your pods can communicate with each other when they are on different hosts.
**It is necessary to do this before you try to deploy any applications to your cluster.**
Several projects provide Kubernetes pod networks.
You can see a complete list of available network add-ons on the [add-ons page](/docs/admin/addons/).
By way of example, you can install Weave Net by running on the master:

**You should install a pod network on the master before you try to deploy any applications to your cluster.**
Once a pod network command has installed, a few seconds later you should see the `kube-dns` pod go into `Running` in the output of `kubectl get pods --all-namespaces`.
If you prefer [Calico](https://github.com/projectcalico/calico-containers/tree/master/docs/cni/kubernetes/manifests/kubeadm) or [Canal](https://github.com/tigera/canal/tree/master/k8s-install/kubeadm), please refer to their respective installation guides.
You should only install one pod network per cluster.
Once a pod network has been installed, you can confirm that it is working by checking that the `kube-dns` pod is `Running` in the output of `kubectl get pods --all-namespaces`.
**This signifies that your cluster is ready.**
You can learn more about other available pod networks on the [add-ons page](/docs/admin/addons/).
### (Optional) Installing a sample application
As an example, you will now install a sample microservices application, a socks shop, to put your cluster through its paces.

* To uninstall the socks shop, run `kubectl delete -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lukemarsden/microservices-demo/master/deploy/kubernetes/definitions/wholeWeaveDemo-NodePort.yaml`.
* To uninstall Kubernetes, simply delete the machines you created for this tutorial.
Or alternatively, uninstall the `kubelet`, `kubeadm` and `kubectl` packages and then manually delete all the Docker container that were created by this process.

To easily obtain a cluster which works with LBs and PVs Kubernetes, try [the "hello world" GKE tutorial](/docs/hellonode) or [one of the other cloud-specific installation tutorials](/docs/getting-started-guides/).
Workaround: use the [NodePort feature of services](/docs/user-guide/services/#type-nodeport) to demonstrate exposing the sample application on the internet.
1. The cluster created here will have a single master, with a single `etcd` database running on it.
This means that if the master fails, your cluster will lose its configuration data and will need to be recreated from scratch.

Workaround: use `docker logs` on the nodes where the containers are running as a workaround.
1. There is not yet an easy way to generate a `kubeconfig` file which can be used to authenticate to the cluster remotely with `kubectl` on, for example, your workstation.
Workaround: copy the kubelet's `kubeconfig` from the master: use `scp root@<master>:/etc/kubernetes/kubelet.conf .` and then e.g. `kubectl --kubeconfig ./kubelet.conf get nodes` from your workstation.
