  • One-line PR description: KEP proposing clearer node-to-pod source IP behaviors and kube-proxy options (no-masquerade-cidrs and node IP SNAT).
  • Issue link: TBD
  • Other comments: This KEP formalizes the structural solutions discussed in fix: kube-proxy SNAT with node InternalIP instead of interface address kubernetes#138360, incorporating recommendations for CNI node-to-pod source IPs, the no-masquerade-cidrs datapath optimization, and the explicit node IP SNAT fallback.

Hi @kairosci. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Tip

We noticed you've done this a few times! Consider joining the org to skip this step and gain /lgtm and other bot rights. We recommend asking approvers on your previous PRs to sponsor you.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
