Helm Reference

The table below serves as a reference for the values that can be set on Cilium’s Helm chart.

Key

Description

Type

Default

MTU

Configure the underlying network MTU to overwrite auto-detected MTU. This value doesn’t change the host network interface MTU i.e. eth0 or ens0. It changes the MTU for cilium_net@cilium_host, cilium_host@cilium_net, cilium_vxlan and lxc_health interfaces.

int

0

affinity

Affinity for cilium-agent.

Allows to explicitly specify the IPv6 CIDR for native routing. When specified, Cilium assumes networking for this CIDR is preconfigured and hands traffic destined for that range to the Linux network stack without applying any SNAT. Generally speaking, specifying a native routing CIDR implies that Cilium can depend on the underlying networking stack to route packets to their destination. To offer a concrete example, if Cilium is configured to use direct routing and the Kubernetes CIDR is included in the native routing CIDR, the user must configure the routes to reach pods, either manually or by setting the auto-direct-node-routes flag.
