(When pod is deleted)
• Add your code to the cmdAdd and cmdDel functions.

Network plugins for kubernetes
This document discusses CNI and the Linen CNI plugin. It begins with an introduction to CNI and how it allows plugins to configure network interfaces in containers. It then discusses the Linen CNI plugin, which is designed for overlay networks and uses Open vSwitch. It explains how Linen CNI works with Kubernetes and provides packet processing between nodes. The document also compares Linen CNI to other overlay networking solutions like OVN-Kubernetes.

CNI Plugins • bridge: Create a bridge adds the host and the container to it • IPAM : IP address allocation • host-local : maintains a local database of allocated IPs • DHCP : Runs a daemon on the host to make DHCP requests on behalf of the container • Flannel: responsible for providing a layer 3 IPv4 network between multiple nodes in a cluster • Huge variety of different types plugins, such as loopback, PTP, IPVLAN, MACVLAN, etc. 12
