Are Kubernetes pods that use host networking assigned a pod IP that can be accessed using a Service resource?

Question

If a Kubernetes pod is defined with host network enabled, is the application running on this pod accessible from the Service resource using the app selector?

Answer 1

Host network means it will use the host system's network. Services are created in pod network which is separate. So it can not be accessed that way. You can access a pod with host network directly using the IP of the host system. You should avoid using host network though for various reasons.
