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](../how-to-guides/advanced-user-guides/istio-setup-guide/set-up-istio-gateway.md) and [setting up Istio's components for traffic management.](../how-to-guides/advanced-user-guides/istio-setup-guide/set-up-traffic-management.md)
