<p>I have k8s cluster with two node, master and worker node, installed Calico.</p>
<p>I initialized cluster and installed calico with following commands</p>
<pre><code># Initialize cluster
kubeadm init --apiserver-advertise-address=&lt;MatserNodePublicIP&gt; --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16

# Install Calico. Refer to official document
# https://docs.projectcalico.org/getting-started/kubernetes/self-managed-onprem/onpremises#install-calico-with-kubernetes-api-datastore-50-nodes-or-less
curl https://docs.projectcalico.org/manifests/calico.yaml -O
kubectl apply -f calico.yaml
</code></pre>
<p>After that, I found pods running in different node can't communicate with each other, but pods running in same node can communicate with each other.</p>
<p>Here are my operations:</p>
<pre><code># With following command, I ran a nginx pod scheduled to worker node
# and assigned pod id 192.168.199.72
kubectl create nginx --image=nginx

# With following command, I ran a busybox pod scheduled to master node
# and assigned pod id 192.168.119.197
kubectl run -it --rm --restart=Never busybox --image=gcr.io/google-containers/busybox sh

# In busybox bash, I executed following command
# '&gt;' represents command output
wget 192.168.199.72 
&gt; Connecting to 192.168.199.72 (192.168.199.72:80)
&gt; wget: can't connect to remote host (192.168.199.72): Connection timed out

</code></pre>
<p>However, if nginx pod run in master node (same as busybox), the wget would output a correct welcome html.</p>
<p>(For scheduling nginx pod to master node, I cordon worker node, and restarted nginx pod)</p>
<p>I also tried to schedule nginx and busybox pod to worker node, the wget ouput is a correct welcome html.</p>
<hr />
<p>Here are my cluster status, everything looks fine. I searched all I can find but couldn't find solution.</p>
<p>matser and worker node can ping each other with private IP.</p>
<p>For firewall</p>
<pre><code>systemctl status firewalld
&gt; Unit firewalld.service could not be found.

I_dont_know
<p>Ok. It's fault of firewall. I opened all of the following ports on my master node and recreated my cluster, then everything got fine and cni0 interface appeared. Although I still don't know why.</p>
<p>During the proccessing of tring, I find cni0 interface is important. If there is no cni0, I could not ping pod running in diffrent node.</p>
