### kubenet
The Linux-only kubenet plugin provides functionality similar to the `--configure-cbr0` kubelet command-line option. It creates a Linux bridge named `cbr0` and creates a veth pair for each pod with the host end of each pair connected to `cbr0`. The pod end of the pair is assigned an IP address allocated from a range assigned to the node either through configuration or by the controller-manager. `cbr0` is assigned an MTU matching the smallest MTU of an enabled normal interface on the host. The kubenet plugin is currently mutually exclusive with, and will eventually replace, the --configure-cbr0 option. It is also currently incompatible with the flannel experimental overlay.
Kubenet is a very basic, simple network plugin, on Linux only. It does not, of itself, implement more advanced features like cross-node networking or network policy. It is typically used together with a cloud provider that sets up routing rules for communication between nodes, or in single-node environments.
