medium📝 Troubleshoot Q14 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Identify why traffic is not intercepted
Service mesh requires sidecar proxies injected into pods to intercept traffic.Step 2: Rule out unrelated issues
Kubernetes API server down or missing images cause broader failures, not just traffic interception. CPU limits affect performance but not injection.Final Answer:
The sidecar proxy was not injected into the pods -> Option BQuick Check:
Missing sidecar = no traffic interception [OK]
Quick Trick: Check if sidecar proxy is injected in pods [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Blaming Kubernetes API server for traffic interception issues
- Ignoring sidecar injection step
- Assuming CPU limits block traffic interception
