## Using kubectl with a Docker EE cluster
## Using kubectl with a Docker Enterprise cluster
Docker Enterprise Edition provides users unique certificates and keys to authenticate against
Docker Enterprise provides users unique certificates and keys to authenticate against
the Docker and Kubernetes APIs. Instructions on how to download these certificates and how to
configure kubectl to use them can be found in [CLI-based access.](cli.md#download-client-certificates)
## Install Helm on Docker Enterprise
Helm is the package manager for Kubernetes. Tiller is the Helm server. Before installing Helm on Docker Enterprise, you must meet the following requirements:
* You must be running a Docker Enterprise 2.1 or higher cluster.
* You must have kubectl configured to communicate with the cluster (usually this is done via a client bundle).
To use Helm and Tiller with UCP, you must grant the default service account within the kube-system namespace the necessary roles. Enter the following kubectl commands in this order:
```bash
kubectl create rolebinding default-view --clusterrole=view --serviceaccount=kube-system:default --namespace=kube-system
kubectl create clusterrolebinding add-on-cluster-admin --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:default
```
It is recommended that you specify a Role and RoleBinding to limit Tiller’s scope to a particular namespace, as described in [Helm’s documentation](https://helm.sh/docs/using_helm/#example-deploy-tiller-in-a-namespace-restricted-to-deploying-resources-only-in-that-namespace).
See [initialize Helm and install Tiller](https://helm.sh/docs/using_helm/#initialize-helm-and-install-tiller) for more information.
