text: The comments in says that : However there are several cases where this is false : When using a Service with a targetPort that references a name in the ports arrays of the pod. Some software (ab)uses this API to get which ports are used (See Although unfixable, my goal is to fix the documentation so other people don't have the same problem). The Azure Load Balancer implementation does this for instance. Some other network/security software might use this information. Also, is it possible to document/reference the above issue in the comment ? Since it is described as informational I expected for the network to work without this information. But it's definitely not the case. Not needed since it's mostly a doc issue. I'm interested in contributing this patch but would like some feedbacks before doing it. :) <details</details<details</details<details</details<details</details<details</details<details</details
/sig network
/triage accepted -- thoughts? I believe the doc are due for a refresh.
I'd take this one. /assign
I didn't see that you wanted to do this patch, I am very sorry and now I unassign it. /unassign
No worries But I'm still not sure where / what to add. Should I only fix the part saying it is only informational ? Is there anything else ? (cc
