|structuredtext=When you create the OpenShift cluster(s) to deploy the Genesys Engage services, configure the cluster to support the Container Network Interface (CNI) or its equivalent. In a Kubernetes environment, CNI allows direct network routing to pods in a node via private IPs. Besides routing, CNI also removes the allocated resources to a container when it is deleted. When you use a CNI, you don't have to rely on kubenet and/or Calico for Pod routing.

Describe the following Ingress properties
 
 
 
*Cookies usage
 
*Header requirements - client IP & redirect,  passthrough
 
*Session stickiness
 
*Whitelisting - optional
 
*TLS for ingress - optional (should be able to enable or disable TLS on the connection).

Any external connection from the Kubernetes cluster to other systems need to be documented.  This will include connecting to Genesys Cloud for Hybrid services (such as AI, WEM) as well as "Mixed" Environments where some components are still deployed as VMs.  Need to specify the port(s) and protocols.
 
 
 
Note that this will include 3rd party services. Customers may optionally deploy these services outside of the Kubernetes cluster especially for production environments. These connections must be secured.
 
 
 
Note that Mixed Environments will mainly be for transition periods when customers are migrating from a classic premise environment to Private Edition.

CoreDNS is recommended with in the Kubernetes clusters along with Node LocalDNS for performance.

Engage Services are dependent on a Service Mesh in particular Consul to dynamically route traffic to the right available service instance. In the future it might be used to enable TLS between services as well as richer network access control between services.
