Deploying SRT into a Kubernetes cluster with a load balancer...

[itseramin]

I'm at the stage where the only thing left to do is deploy my application and start testing it in a production environment.

I have a Kubernetes cluster on DigitalOcean, setting up HTTP(S) services was easy, doing bare TCP/UDP protocol port opening is another thing though... Following the official documentation (https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/user-guide/exposing-tcp-udp-services/), I was able to expose a basic UDP listener container (https://github.com/mendhak/docker-udp-listener) and send messages to it, which were logged out the by the container.

However setting up the same configuration for my SRT container does nothing. I can't really test that my UDP port is opened (tried it with netcat, but the port is already in use [that's a good sign I guess]).

Stumbling upon the following discussion: #2220 made me question a lot of things (what does TCP have to do with SRT?), but I tried anyway and then failed... Maybe I did not setup something correctly, because I don't actually edit the NGINX config...

If there is anyone who managed to setup a production environment in a Kubernetes cluster with a load balancer, please let me know how you made that work!

Thanks in advance!
