Workspace Setting

Workspace Setting allows configuring the default traffic, security and east-west gateway settings for all the workloads in the namespaces owned by the workspace. Any namespace in the workspace that is not part of a traffic or security group with specific settings will use these default settings.

The following example sets the default security policy to accept either mutual TLS or plaintext traffic, and only accept connections at a proxy workload from services within the same namespace. The default traffic policy allows unknown traffic from a proxy workload to be forwarded via an egress gateway tsb-egress in the perimeter namespace in the same cluster.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w1-settings
  workspace: w1
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:
  defaultSecuritySetting:
    authenticationSettings:
      trafficMode: REQUIRED
  defaultTrafficSetting:
    egress:
      host: bookinfo-perimeter/tsb-egress

The next example sets the defaults for east-west traffic configuring gateways for two different app groups. The first setting configures the gateway from the namespace platinum to manage the traffic for all those workloads with the labels tier: platinum and critical: true. The second one configures the gateway from the namespace internal to manage the traffic for all those workloads with the labels app: eshop or internal-critical: true. Setting up multiple east-west gateways allows isolating also the cross-cluster traffic.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w1-settings
  workspace: w1
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:
  defaultEastWestGatewaySettings:
  - workloadSelector:
      namespace: platinum
      labels:
        app: eastwest-gw
    exposedServices:
    - serviceLabels:
        tier: platinum
        critical: "true"
  - workloadSelector:
      namespace: internal
      labels:
        app: eastwest-gw
    exposedServices:
    - serviceLabels:
        app: eshop
    - serviceLabels:
        internal-critical: "true"

The next example configures workspace settings for different workspaces with a list of gateway hosts that they can reach.

The first one configures the hostname echo-1.tetrate.io which is reachable from workspace w1.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w1-settings
  workspace: w1
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:
  hostsReachability:
    hostnames:
     - exact: echo-1.tetrate.io

The second one configures the hostnames echo-1.tetrate.io and echo-2.tetrate.io which are reachable from workspace w2.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w2-settings
  workspace: w2
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:
  hostsReachability:
    hostnames:
     - exact: echo-1.tetrate.io
     - exact: echo-2.tetrate.io

The third configures nothing.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w3-settings
  workspace: w3
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:

The last one configures an empty hostname list.

apiVersion: api.tsb.tetrate.io/v2
kind: WorkspaceSetting
metadata:
  name: w4-settings
  workspace: w4
  tenant: mycompany
  organization: myorg
spec:
  hostsReachability:
    hostnames: []

In summary, the previous example makes:

• The host echo-1.tetrate.io to be reachable from namespaces configured in workspaces w1, w2 and w3.
• The host echo-2.tetrate.io to be reachable from namespaces configured in workspaces w2 and `w3``.
• All hosts to be reachable from namespaces configured in workspace w3.
• Workspace w4 cannot reach any hosts.

WorkspaceSetting

Default security and traffic settings for all proxy workloads in the workspace.

Field	Description	Validation Rule
defaultSecuritySetting	tetrateio.api.tsb.security.v2.SecuritySetting Security settings for all proxy workloads in this workspace. This can be overridden at security group's SecuritySetting for specific cases. The override strategy used will be driven by the SecuritySetting propagation strategy. The default propagation strategy is REPLACE, in which a lower level SecuritySetting in the configuration hierarchy replaces a higher level SecuritySetting defined in the configuration hierarchy. Proxy workloads without a specific security group will inherit these settings. If omitted, the following semantics apply: Sidecars will accept connections from clients using Istio Mutual TLS as well as legacy clients using plaintext (i.e. any traffic not using Istio Mutual TLS authentication), i.e. authentication mode defaults to OPTIONAL. No authorization will be performed, i.e., authorization mode defaults to DISABLED.	–
defaultTrafficSetting	tetrateio.api.tsb.traffic.v2.TrafficSetting Traffic settings for all proxy workloads in this workspace. Proxy workloads without a specific traffic group will inherit these settings. If omitted, the following semantics apply: Sidecars will be able to reach any service in the cluster, i.e. reachability mode defaults to CLUSTER. Traffic to unknown destinations will be directly routed from the sidecar to the destination.	–
regionalFailover	List of tetrateio.api.tsb.types.v2.RegionalFailover Locality routing settings for all gateways in the workspace. Overrides any global settings. Please use FailoverSettings instead. If FailoverSettings is set, it takes precedence over this field. Explicitly specify the region traffic will land on when endpoints in local region becomes unhealthy. Should be used together with OutlierDetection to detect unhealthy endpoints. Note: if no OutlierDetection specified, this will not take effect.	–
defaultEastWestGatewaySettings	List of tetrateio.api.tsb.gateway.v2.EastWestGateway Default east west gateway settings specifies workspace-wide east-west gateway configuration. This is used to configure east-west routing (required for fail-over) for the services that are not exposed on the gateways. All the services matching the specified criteria is picked up for exposing on the east-west gateway workload selected by the workload selector. In case, a service matches selectors in multiple items, the one which comes first is picked up.	–
hostsReachability	tetrateio.api.tsb.gateway.v2.HostsReachability Hosts reachability defines the list of hostnames that this workspace can reach. In multicluster deployments, hostnames are reachable to all namespaces(*) by default. However, this may not always be necessary, as clients may only be present in a few namespaces. By configuring this, a list of namespaces can be limited to the namespaces configured in the workspace. A hostname can be reachable from multiple workspaces. If more than one workspace is configured for the same hostname, the hostname is exported to the union of all namespaces configured in each workspace. Workspaces with no hosts reachability configuration are considered to have reachable to all hosts. Workspaces with explicitly empty hostnames are considered to not want to see any hosts. Namespaces that are not part of any workspaces are also considered to have reachable to all hosts.	–
failoverSettings	tetrateio.api.tsb.types.v2.FailoverSettings Failover settings for all proxies connecting to a host exposed in this workspace. Overrides any global settings. Note that this is a server side setting.	–
