<p>This task uses the new <a href="/v0.8/blog/2018/v1alpha3-routing/">v1alpha3 traffic management API</a>. The old API has been deprecated and will be removed in the next Istio release. If you need to use the old version, follow the docs <a href="https://archive.istio.io/v0.7/docs/tasks/traffic-management/">here</a>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>By default, Istio-enabled services are unable to access URLs outside of the cluster because
iptables is used in the pod to transparently redirect all outbound traffic to the sidecar proxy,
which only handles intra-cluster destinations.</p>
<p>This task describes how to configure Istio to expose external services to Istio-enabled clients.
You'll learn how to enable access to external services by defining
<a href="/v0.8/docs/reference/config/istio.networking.v1alpha3/#ServiceEntry">ServiceEntry</a> configurations,
or alternatively, to simply bypass the Istio proxy for a specific range of IPs.</p>
<h2 id="before-you-begin">Before you begin</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Setup Istio by following the instructions in the
<a href="/v0.8/docs/setup/">Installation guide</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Start the <a href="https://github.com/istio/istio/tree/release-0.8/samples/sleep">sleep</a> sample
which will be used as a test source for external calls.</p>
<p>If you have enabled <a href="/v0.8/docs/setup/kubernetes/sidecar-injection/#automatic-sidecar-injection">automatic sidecar injection</a>, do</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ kubectl apply -f @samples/sleep/sleep.yaml@
</code></pre><p>otherwise, you have to manually inject the sidecar before deploying the <code>sleep</code> application:</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ kubectl apply -f &lt;(istioctl kube-inject -f @samples/sleep/sleep.yaml@)
</code></pre><p>Note that any pod that you can <code>exec</code> and <code>curl</code> from would do.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<p>Similar to inter-cluster requests, Istio
<a href="/v0.8/docs/concepts/traffic-management/rules-configuration/">routing rules</a>
can also be set for external services that are accessed using <code>ServiceEntry</code> configurations.
To illustrate we will use <a href="/v0.8/docs/reference/commands/istioctl/">istioctl</a>
to set a timeout rule on calls to the httpbin.org service.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>From inside the pod being used as the test source, invoke the <code>/delay</code> endpoint of the httpbin.org external service:</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ kubectl exec -it $SOURCE_POD -c sleep bash

</code></pre><p>The request should return 200 (OK) in approximately 5 seconds.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Exit the source pod and use <code>istioctl</code> to set a 3s timeout on calls to the httpbin.org external service:</p>

<li>
<p>Wait a few seconds, then issue the <em>curl</em> request again:</p>

Although httpbin.org was waiting 5 seconds, Istio cut off the request at 3 seconds.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="calling-external-services-directly">Calling external services directly</h2>
<p>If you want to completely bypass Istio for a specific IP range,
you can configure the Envoy sidecars to prevent them from
<a href="/v0.8/docs/concepts/traffic-management/request-routing/#communication-between-services">intercepting</a>
the external requests. This can be done by setting the <code>global.proxy.includeIPRanges</code> variable of
<a href="/v0.8/docs/setup/kubernetes/helm-install/#customization-with-helm">Helm</a> and updating the <code>ConfigMap</code> <em>istio-sidecar-injector</em> by <code>kubectl apply</code>. After <em>istio-sidecar-injector</em> is updated, the value of <code>global.proxy.includeIPRanges</code> will affect all the future deployments of the application pods.</p>
<p>The simplest way to use the <code>global.proxy.includeIPRanges</code> variable is to pass it the IP range(s)
used for internal cluster services, thereby excluding external IPs from being redirected
to the sidecar proxy.
The values used for internal IP range(s), however, depends on where your cluster is running.
For example, with Minikube the range is 10.0.0.1/24, so you would update your <code>ConfigMap</code> <em>istio-sidecar-injector</em> like this:</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ helm template @install/kubernetes/helm/istio@ &lt;the flags you used to install Istio&gt; --set global.proxy.includeIPRanges=&quot;10.0.0.1/24&quot; -x @templates/sidecar-injector-configmap.yaml@ | kubectl apply -f -
</code></pre><p>Note that you should use the same Helm command you used <a href="/v0.8/docs/setup/kubernetes/helm-install">to install Istio</a>,
in particular, the same value of the <code>--namespace</code> flag. In addition to the flags you used to install Istio, add <code>--set global.proxy.includeIPRanges=&quot;10.0.0.1/24&quot; -x templates/sidecar-injector-configmap.yaml</code>.</p>
<p>Redeploy the <em>sleep</em> application as described in the <a href="/v0.8/docs/tasks/traffic-management/egress/#before-you-begin">Before you begin</a> section.</p>
<h3 id="determine-the-value-of-globalproxyincludeipranges">Determine the value of <code>global.proxy.includeIPRanges</code></h3>
<p>Set the value of <code>global.proxy.includeIPRanges</code> according to your cluster provider.</p>
<h4 id="ibm-cloud-private">IBM Cloud Private</h4>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Get your <code>service_cluster_ip_range</code> from IBM Cloud Private configuration file under <code>cluster/config.yaml</code>.</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ cat cluster/config.yaml | grep service_cluster_ip_range

<div class="highlight"><pre style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4"><code class="language-plain" data-lang="plain">service_cluster_ip_range: 10.0.0.1/24

<li>

</li>
</ol>
<h4 id="ibm-cloud-kubernetes-service">IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service</h4>
<p>Use <code>--set global.proxy.includeIPRanges=&quot;172.30.0.0/16\,172.20.0.0/16\,10.10.10.0/24&quot;</code></p>
<h4 id="google-container-engine-gke">Google Container Engine (GKE)</h4>
<p>The ranges are not fixed, so you will need to run the <code>gcloud container clusters describe</code> command to determine the ranges to use. For example:</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ gcloud container clusters describe XXXXXXX --zone=XXXXXX | grep -e clusterIpv4Cidr -e servicesIpv4Cidr
clusterIpv4Cidr: 10.4.0.0/14
servicesIpv4Cidr: 10.7.240.0/20
</code></pre><p>Use <code>--set global.proxy.includeIPRanges=&quot;10.4.0.0/14\,10.7.240.0/20&quot;</code></p>
<h4 id="azure-container-serviceacs">Azure Container Service(ACS)</h4>

<p>Use <code>--set global.proxy.includeIPRanges=&quot;10.0.0.1/24&quot;</code></p>
<h3 id="access-the-external-services">Access the external services</h3>
<p>After updating the <code>ConfigMap</code> <em>istio-sidecar-injector</em> and redeploying the <em>sleep</em> application,
the Istio sidecar will only intercept and manage internal requests
within the cluster. Any external request will simply bypass the sidecar and go straight to its intended
destination.</p>
<pre><code class="language-command" data-lang="command">$ export SOURCE_POD=$(kubectl get pod -l app=sleep -o jsonpath={.items..metadata.name})
$ kubectl exec -it $SOURCE_POD -c sleep curl http://httpbin.org/headers
</code></pre><h2 id="understanding-what-happened">Understanding what happened</h2>
<p>In this task we looked at two ways to call external services from an Istio mesh:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Using a <code>ServiceEntry</code> (recommended)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Configuring the Istio sidecar to exclude external IPs from its remapped IP table</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>The first approach (<code>ServiceEntry</code>) allows
you to use all of the same Istio service mesh features for calls to services within or outside
of the cluster. We demonstrated this by setting a timeout rule for calls to an external service.</p>
<p>The second approach bypasses the Istio sidecar proxy, giving your services direct access to any
external URL. However, configuring the proxy this way does require
cloud provider specific knowledge and configuration.</p>
<h2 id="security-note">Security note</h2>
<p><img src="/v0.8/img/exclamation-mark.svg" alt="Warning" title="Warning" style="width: 2rem; display:inline" /> Note that configuration examples in this task <strong>do not enable secure egress traffic control</strong> in
Istio.
A malicious application can bypass the Istio sidecar proxy and access any external service without Istio control.</p>
<p>To implement egress traffic control in a secure way, you must <a href="/v0.8/docs/tasks/traffic-management/egress-gateway">direct egress traffic through an egress gateway</a> and address the security concerns expressed in
