After hours I found out, that LoadBalancer works for cloud providers only and that I have to access Istio by ip and port. So I navigate to http://192.168.5.111:31448 and get only a blank page.
I installed isto via the masternode as not root user inside vmware fusion machine with
istioctl manifest apply --set profile=demo
and get all √.
Is there anything I have to setup to get started?
ok, I found out, that kiali might be the thing. It seems to be installed:
kiali ClusterIP 10.107.52.242 20001/TCP
but since it is running inside a VM I cannot access localhost:
istioctl dashboard kiali
so, how do I access it from “outside”, meaning from the browser on my host machine?
You could make an SSH tunnel to the host running that istio dashboard command, in a new terminal
ssh -L 20001:127.0.0.1:20001 192.168.5.111
then browse to http://localhost:20001 locally
