Thanks Brandon! 10255 is the "read-only" port, to disable it remove --read-only-port from > kubelet config.
Based on https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/kubelet/, I think, to disable it, I should set "--read-only-port" to 0. Now I have added these flags "--read-only-port=0 --client-ca-file=/var/lib/kubelet/ca.crt --authentication-token-webhook --anonymous-auth=false" to start kubelet, the command "curl --insecure https://<node-IP>:10250/spec/" does not work anymore (it shows an error "Unauthorized") which is what I expect, and I also restarted Heapster with this flag "--source=kubernetes.summary_api: https://kubernetes.default?kubeletHttps=true&kubeletPort=10250&insecure=true" so that it can connect to kubelet's 10250 port. The only issue is that kube-apiserver can not connect to kubelet anymore: $ kubectl logs <pod-name> <container-name> --namespace=kube-system error: You must be logged in to the server (the server has asked for the client to provide credentials) I have specified " --kubelet-client-certificate=/etc/cfc/conf/server.cert --kubelet-client-key=/etc/cfc/conf/server.key" to start kube-apiserver, maybe the files I specified here are not correct?
