GitHub user guillemtp added a comment to the discussion: Kubernets CKS cluster in VMWare integration with Shared Network.
I've checked that no iptables rules could affect to communication to manager server. All rules are opened by default. I've made a small progress. After the node tries to start and the k8s cluster ends with error, If I restart the k8s node I can access to it by the User SSH key. If I check the logs, I can see in cloud-init-output.log the following: ``` 2026-03-16 07:11:37,376 - url_helper.py[WARNING]: Calling 'None' failed [50/120s]: request error [HTTPConnectionPool(host='172.24.35.245', port=80): Max retries exceeded with url: /latest/meta-data/instance-id (Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f7e92d43510>, 'Connection to 172.24.35.245 timed out.

A curl to there or also from the controller node, it doesn't work. However, it works to curl to the other VirtualRouter IP 172.24.35.183 <img width="498" height="497" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/424e1a98-dc0a-4a9b-8611-2bcbcd188900" /> I don't see the error in the controller node. I would bet the controller is pointing to 183 instead of 245, but I don't know.
