🧱 Step 1: Create a Kubernetes Cluster

1. Navigate to the Kubernetes section in the left-side menu.
2. Click Create Kubernetes Cluster.

---

⚙️ Step 2: Configure Cluster Settings

1. Select the appropriate:
   • Project
   • Location
   • Kubernetes Version
   • Node Plan
2. Adjust the Node Count to set the number of worker nodes.
3. Add your SSH key to ensure access to the cluster.

info

Without an SSH key, you won’t be able to access the control or worker nodes.

Click Add SSH Key to proceed.

🔐 Step 3: Add Your SSH Key

1. Enter a name and paste your public SSH key in the dialog box.
2. Click Add SSH Key to confirm.

---

📋 Step 4: Review and Create Cluster

1. Provide a name for your Kubernetes cluster.
2. Click Review & Create Cluster.

---

🚀 Step 5: Finalize Cluster Creation

1. A dialog will display the configuration summary and billing information.
2. If all details are correct, click Create Cluster.

✅ Step 6: Cluster Created

Once provisioning is complete, your Kubernetes cluster (controller and worker nodes) will be available under the Kubernetes menu.

🔐 How to Access the Kubernetes Cluster

Use SSH to access your Control and Worker nodes through the Virtual Router.

📌 Control Node:

ssh -i <ssh-private.key> -p 2222 cloud@<Public-IP-of-Virtual-Router>.

📌 Worker Node (Single or Multiple):

ssh -i <ssh-private.key> -p 2223 cloud@<Public-IP-of-Virtual-Router>

If your cluster has more than one worker node, access them via incremental ports:

Node	Port
Worker Node 1	2223
Worker Node 2	2224
Worker Node 3	2225

Each port corresponds to a mapped worker node.
