# EKS Dynamo Networking Prerequisites

For `*-eks-ubuntu-inference-dynamo` recipes, AICR configures
`dynamo-platform` with Kubernetes-native discovery and the standard NATS
event plane for KV-cache and runtime events:
- `nats` on TCP `4222`

This NATS dependency is new as of the Dynamo 1.2 bump, which switched discovery
to the NATS event plane. A cluster whose system-node security group only
allowlisted the pre-1.2 control-plane ports will not have `4222` open, so a
bundle that worked on Dynamo 1.0.x can start failing purely from the version
bump — add the `4222` rule below.

Frontend-to-worker inference request/response traffic is separate: Dynamo 1.2
defaults `DYN_REQUEST_PLANE` to TCP, and AICR does not override it to NATS. The
worker runtime relays local vLLM ZMQ KV-cache events onto the NATS-backed event
plane so the KV router or EPP can consume live cache state.

If system components and GPU workloads are on different node groups/security groups, these ports may be blocked from GPU nodes to system nodes. Typical symptoms:
- `JetStream not available` (NATS unreachable)
- Dynamo frontend and vLLM worker pods stuck in `CrashLoopBackOff`, with
`Exception: Failed to connect to NATS: timed out` in the frontend log
- Worker startup probes failing with `connection refused` because the process
exits before serving
- The `inference-perf` performance validator failing after its workload-readiness
(10 min) and health (5 min) gates lapse — roughly 15 min — while `deployment`
and `conformance` pass; the workload never reaches a ready state
`dynamo-platform` with Kubernetes-native discovery. As of the Dynamo 1.4+
bump, AICR no longer installs bundled NATS by default: the request plane
defaults to TCP and the KV event plane defaults to ZMQ
(`ai-dynamo/dynamo#11951`). This removes the old `4222` NATS requirement,
but it does **not** remove the underlying cross-nodegroup networking
requirement — the request plane and KV events are now **direct
frontend↔worker pod-to-pod connections** instead of both sides talking to a
`dynamo-platform-nats` StatefulSet on the system nodegroup, and Frontend
pods still run on the system nodegroup while workers run on the GPU
nodegroup, so traffic still crosses the same GPU↔system nodegroup SG
boundary as before.

MAJOR: The replacement networking contract is explicitly unfinished: the probe and security-group commands retain <PORT>, AWS UAT still allows only the removed NATS port 4222, and current user guidance still describes a NATS-backed event plane. On supported EKS installs with separate GPU and system security groups, AICR can install while TCP requests or ZMQ KV events remain blocked, and current UAT will not detect it.

Minimum correction: establish the exact 1.4.1 listener ports and traffic directions, replace every placeholder with actionable rules and probes, and synchronize UAT and user guidance to that tested TCP/ZMQ contract.

@mchmarny I've pushed the 1.4.1 fix for the registry blocker.

For the networking doc - I don't have access to a live 1.4.1 EKS cluster to confirm the TCP request-plane port. The ZMQ KV-events port 5557 is confirmed from the smoke test manifest, but the request-plane port needs a live ss -tlnp run on the actual cluster. Could you or @yuanchen8911 share that output? Once I have the real port I can immediately replace , update the SG rules, fix the probe commands, and push the final doc.

🔵 Nitpick — MD031 — fenced block not preceded by a blank line

Inside the blockquote, line 24 is immediately followed by the opening ```shell fence at line 25 with no blank > line; markdownlint MD031 (blanks-around-fences) applies within blockquotes. Also flagged by CodeRabbit.

If the GPU and system node groups sit in different security groups, these
ports may be blocked from GPU nodes to the frontend's node (and vice versa).
Typical symptoms:
- Dynamo frontend and vLLM worker pods stuck in `CrashLoopBackOff`, or a
frontend that starts cleanly but never successfully routes a request
through to a worker
- Worker startup probes failing with `connection refused` because the
process exits before serving
- The `inference-perf` performance validator failing after its
workload-readiness (10 min) and health (5 min) gates lapse — roughly
15 min — while `deployment` and `conformance` pass; the workload never
reaches a ready state

You can confirm reachability directly from a GPU node before re-running. The
toleration is required because the GPU node groups on these clusters are
tainted (`NoSchedule`/`NoExecute`); without it the probe pod stays `Pending`
and never runs:

```shell
kubectl run nats-probe --rm -i --restart=Never --image=busybox:1.36 \
kubectl run tcp-probe --rm -i --restart=Never --image=busybox:1.36 \

🟠 Major — Networking doc ships placeholders + 'TODO before merging'

Lines 16 (TODO before merging, #1836), 51, 83, 114 carry unresolved placeholders in the probe, the required SG-rule list, and the AWS CLI example. This doc is authoritative — linked from docs/README.md, docs/integrator/index.md, and deep-linked from docs/user/validation.md#required-security-group-rules — so an operator with split GPU/system SGs cannot open the correct rule from it, and hits the exact CrashLoop/timeout symptoms it describes.

Blast radius: Operators cannot complete the SG rule; overlaps mchmarny's standing MAJOR.

Fix: Confirm the real request-plane + ZMQ ports on a live 1.4.1 EKS cluster (per the doc's own ss -tlnp step), fill all three s and remove the TODO — or hold the rewrite until #1836 resolves ports.

The make bom-docs output is deterministic given the current environment; fixing the render failures is out of scope for this change.

@mohityadav8, verification does not support the pre-existing classification.

origin/main contains complete image inventories for both components:

  • aws-ebs-csi-driver: 6 images.
  • prometheus-adapter: 1 image.

This PR replaces those inventories with helm template failed: signal: killed and zero-image entries. The failures therefore change the generated BOM in this PR. Please restore complete inventories or prevent BOM generation from accepting failed Helm renders.
