An effort to create a fully functional Kubernetes cluster with 1 million active nodes. The article details the challenges and solutions for scaling Kubernetes to this size, covering networking, state management (etcd), and the scheduler.
The article discusses the use of AI agents for automating and optimizing tasks in the networking industry, including network deployment, configuration, and monitoring. It outlines a workflow with four agents that collectively achieve the setup and verification of network connectivity within a Linux and SR Linux container environment.
The author demonstrates a workflow involving four AI agents designed to deploy, configure, and monitor a network:
Document Specialist Agent: This agent extracts installation, topology deployment, and node connection instructions from a specified website.
- Linux Configuration Agent: Executes the installation and configuration commands on a Debian 12 UTM VM, checks the health of the VM, and verifies the successful deployment of network containers.
- Network Configuration Specialist Agent: Configures network IP allocation, interfaces, and routing based on the network topology, including detailed BGP configurations for different network nodes.
- Senior Network Administrator Agent: Applies the generated configurations to the network nodes, checks BGP peering, and verifies end-to-end connectivity through ping tests.
