* Accept experimental CNI `networking` mode "cilium"
* Run Cilium v1.8.0-rc4 with overlay vxlan tunnels and a
minimal set of features. We're interested in:
* IPAM: Divide pod_cidr into /24 subnets per node
* CNI networking pod-to-pod, pod-to-external
* BPF masquerade
* NetworkPolicy as defined by Kubernetes (no L7 Policy)
* Continue using kube-proxy with Cilium probe mode
* Firewall changes:
* Require UDP 8472 for vxlan (Linux kernel default) between nodes
* Optional ICMP echo(8) between nodes for host reachability
(health)
* Optional TCP 4240 between nodes for endpoint reachability (health)
Known Issues:
* Containers with `hostPort` don't listen on all host addresses,
these workloads must use `hostNetwork` for now
https://github.com/cilium/cilium/issues/12116
* Erroneous warning on Fedora CoreOS
https://github.com/cilium/cilium/issues/10256
Note: This is experimental. It is not listed in docs and may be
changed or removed without a deprecation notice

* Configure kube-proxy --metrics-bind-address=0.0.0.0 (default
127.0.0.1) to serve metrics on 0.0.0.0:10249
* Add firewall rules to allow Prometheus (resides on a worker) to
scrape kube-proxy service endpoints on controllers or workers
* Add a clusterIP: None service for kube-proxy endpoint discovery
* Run a kube-apiserver, kube-scheduler, and kube-controller-manager
static pod on each controller node. Previously, kube-apiserver was
self-hosted as a DaemonSet across controllers and kube-scheduler
and kube-controller-manager were a Deployment (with 2 or
controller_count many replicas).
* Remove bootkube bootstrap and pivot to self-hosted
* Remove pod-checkpointer manifests (no longer needed)
* Replace v0.11 bracket type hints with Terraform v0.12 list expressions
* Use expression syntax instead of interpolated strings, where suggested
* Update Azure tutorial and worker pools documentation
* Define Terraform and plugin version requirements in versions.tf
* Require azurerm ~> 1.27 to support Terraform v0.12
* Require ct ~> 0.3.2 to support Terraform v0.12
* Change flannel port from the kernel default 8472 to the
IANA assigned VXLAN port 4789
* Update firewall rules or security groups for VXLAN
* Why now? Calico now offers its own VXLAN backend so
standardizing on the IANA port will simplify config
