This section describes how to enable Istio and start using it in your projects.
|
|
|
|
This section assumes that you have Rancher installed, and you have a Rancher-provisioned Kubernetes cluster where you would like to set up Istio.
|
|
|
|
If you use Istio for traffic management, you will need to allow external traffic to the cluster. In that case, you will need to follow all of the steps below.
|
|
|
|
> **Quick Setup** If you don't need external traffic to reach Istio, and you just want to set up Istio for monitoring and tracing traffic within the cluster, skip the steps for [setting up the Istio gateway](set-up-istio-gateway.md) and [setting up Istio's components for traffic management.](set-up-traffic-management.md)
|
|
|
|
1. [Enable Istio in the cluster.](enable-istio-in-cluster.md)
|
|
1. [Enable Istio in all the namespaces where you want to use it.](enable-istio-in-namespace.md)
|
|
1. [Select the nodes where the main Istio components will be deployed.](node-selectors.md)
|
|
1. [Add deployments and services that have the Istio sidecar injected.](use-istio-sidecar.md)
|
|
1. [Set up the Istio gateway. ](set-up-istio-gateway.md)
|
|
1. [Set up Istio's components for traffic management.](set-up-traffic-management.md)
|
|
1. [Generate traffic and see Istio in action.](generate-and-view-traffic.md)
