Patched Konnectivity agent for high-concurrency BYOK Kubernetes API tunnels License: Apache License 2.0

Overview

lepton-konnectivity-agent is the outbound tunnel endpoint that carries Kubernetes API traffic between a customer-owned cluster and NVIDIA DGX Cloud Lepton. It is built from a patched build of kubernetes-sigs/apiserver-network-proxy (Apache License 2.0), with modifications for high-concurrency API tunnels.

It is one of three images that make up the DGX Cloud Lepton BYOK ("Bring Your Own Kubernetes") cluster agent, alongside lepton-cluster-bootstrap and lepton-cluster-api-proxy.

How it fits

BYOK lets you attach a Kubernetes cluster you already own to DGX Cloud Lepton, so Lepton can schedule and manage GPU workloads on it. Lepton never requires inbound network access to your cluster's API server: the cluster agent dials out and maintains the connection from your side.

ImageRole
lepton-cluster-bootstrapOne-shot Job. Registers the cluster and installs enrollment artifacts.
lepton-cluster-api-proxySidecar. Terminates agent mTLS and forwards to the Kubernetes API server.

Usage

This image is not run directly. It is deployed by the DGX Cloud Lepton cluster agent Helm chart, which is provided when you enroll a cluster. All credentials, certificates, and tokens are supplied at runtime; none are baked into the image.
