Cluster Nodes as Source

This tutorial describes how to configure ExternalDNS to use the cluster nodes as source. Using nodes (--source=node) as source is possible to synchronize a DNS zone with the nodes of a cluster.

The node source adds an A record per each node externalIP (if not found, any IPv4 internalIP is used instead). It also adds an AAAA record per each node IPv6 internalIP. The TTL of the records can be set with the external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/ttl node annotation.

Nodes marked as Unschedulable as per core/v1/NodeSpec are excluded. This avoid exposing Unhealthy, NotReady or SchedulingDisabled (cordon) nodes.
