Are you saying you can

curl

from within the VM or from the VM's host OS?

I can curl from within the VM (k8s node). Not my VM's host OS. Is this expected and normal behavior for k8s or is this an implementation detail specific to k3s?

I'm getting out of my depth at this level of networking, but I believe this is normal. I just tested one of my clusters by logging onto a worker node that has a replica of my ArgoCD server Deployment, and I can successfully reach it with

ubuntu@worker-01~$ curl -vL 10.42.0.19:8080

Hmm... Okay. I guess pods are available on the the host node. Just not outside the nodes within the cluster. Thanks for checking.
