<p>I have deployed an EKS cluster with a private endpoint (with the help of vpc endpoints). There is no public endpoint and there is no internet gateway.</p>
<p>I need to understand how to access the Kubernetes API from an EC2 instance launched in one of the private subnets in the same VPC. I am using Session Manager with vpc endpoint to run commands on the EC2 instance.</p>
<p>Any advice on how to install and configure kubectl to manage the cluster in this case?</p>

<p>Typically you use SSM connect on the EC2 console to start a session with the EC2 instance launched in the private subnet, and interact with your fully private cluster from there.</p>
