<ins> --- title: Ports and Protocols content_type: reference weight: 50 --- When running Kubernetes in an environment with strict network boundaries, such as on-premises datacenter with physical network firewalls or Virtual Networks in Public Cloud, it is useful to be aware of the ports and protocols used by Kubernetes components ## Control plane | Protocol | Direction | Port Range | Purpose                 | Used By                   | |----------|-----------|------------|-------------------------|---------------------------| | TCP      | Inbound   | 6443       | Kubernetes API server   | All                       | | TCP      | Inbound   | 2379-2380  | etcd server client API  | kube-apiserver, etcd      | | TCP      | Inbound   | 10250      | Kubelet API             | Self, Control plane       | | TCP      | Inbound   | 10259      | kube-scheduler          | Self                      | | TCP      | Inbound   | 10257      | kube-controller-manager | Self                      | Although etcd ports are included in control plane section, you can also host your own etcd cluster externally or on custom ports. ## Worker node(s) {#node} | Protocol | Direction | Port Range  | Purpose               | Used By                 | |----------|-----------|-------------|-----------------------|-------------------------| | TCP      | Inbound   | 10250       | Kubelet API           | Self, Control plane     | | TCP      | Inbound   | 30000-32767 | NodePort Services†    | All                     | † Default port range for [NodePort Services](/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/). All default port numbers can be overridden. When custom ports are used those ports need to be open instead of defaults mentioned here. One common example is API server port that is sometimes switched to 443. Alternatively, the default port is kept as is and API server is put behind a load balancer that listens on 443 and routes the requests to API server on the default port. </ins>

Discussion:
What would you like to be Create a dedicated ports and protocols page for Kubernetes Clusters. Why is this needed Currently, the closest page that provides this information is under KubeAdm install setup . This is hard to find for any cluster administrator trying to deploy Kubernetes Documented Ports for and are incorrect and need an update Slack thread: /sig security node docs architecture /area security

Hi Would you be OK to have this as a reference page, rather than as a concept?
/sig network
/sig cluster-lifecycle Given the PR touches kubeadm docs.
Moved it under . This was the kind of feedback I was looking for from SIG Docs. Thank you
