Add IPv6 support for Typhoon Azure clusters
* Define a dual-stack virtual network with both IPv4 and IPv6 private
address space. Change `host_cidr` variable (string) to a `network_cidr`
variable (object) with "ipv4" and "ipv6" fields that list CIDR strings.
* Define dual-stack controller and worker subnets. Disable Azure
default outbound access (a deprecated fallback mechanism)
* Enable dual-stack load balancing to Kubernetes Ingress by adding
a public IPv6 frontend IP and LB rule to the load balancer.
* Enable worker outbound IPv6 connectivity through load balancer
SNAT by adding an IPv6 frontend IP and outbound rule
* Configure controller nodes with a public IPv6 address to provide
direct outbound IPv6 connectivity
* Add an IPv6 worker backend pool. Azure requires separate IPv4 and
IPv6 backend pools, though the health probe can be shared
* Extend network security group rules for IPv6 source/destinations

Checklist:

Access to controller and worker nodes via IPv6 addresses:

  * SSH access to controller nodes via public IPv6 address
  * SSH access to worker nodes via (private) IPv6 address (via
    controller)

Outbound IPv6 connectivity from controller and worker nodes:

```
nc -6 -zv ipv6.google.com 80
Ncat: Version 7.94 ( https://nmap.org/ncat )
Ncat: Connected to [2607:f8b0:4001:c16::66]:80.
Ncat: 0 bytes sent, 0 bytes received in 0.02 seconds.
```

Serve Ingress traffic via IPv4 or IPv6 just requires setting
up A and AAAA records and running the ingress controller with
`hostNetwork: true` since, hostPort only forwards IPv4 traffic

Load Balancing

Load Balancing

kube-apiserver

A load balancer distributes IPv4 TCP/6443 traffic across a backend address pool of controllers with a healthy kube-apiserver. Clusters with multiple controllers use an availability set with 2 fault domains to tolerate hardware failures within Azure.

HTTP/HTTPS Ingress

An Azure Load Balancer distributes IPv4/IPv6 TCP/80 and TCP/443 traffic across backend address pools of workers with a healthy Ingress controller.

The load balancer addresses are output as ingress_static_ipv4 and ingress_static_ipv6 for use in DNS A and AAAA records. See Ingress on Azure.

TCP/UDP Services

Load balance TCP/UDP applications by adding rules to the Azure LB (output). A rule may map different ports (e.g. 3333 external, 30333 internal).

# Forward traffic to the worker backend address pool
resource "azurerm_lb_rule" "some-app-tcp" {
  name                           = "some-app-tcp"
  resource_group_name            = module.ramius.resource_group_name
  loadbalancer_id                = module.ramius.loadbalancer_id
  frontend_ip_configuration_name = "ingress-ipv4"

  protocol                 = "Tcp"
  frontend_port            = 3333
  backend_port             = 30333
  backend_address_pool_ids = module.ramius.backend_address_pool_ids.ipv4
  probe_id                 = azurerm_lb_probe.some-app.id
}

# Health check some-app
resource "azurerm_lb_probe" "some-app" {
  name                = "some-app"
  resource_group_name = module.ramius.resource_group_name
  loadbalancer_id     = module.ramius.loadbalancer_id
  protocol            = "Tcp"
  port                = 30333
}

Firewalls

Add firewall rules to the worker security group.

resource "azurerm_network_security_rule" "some-app" {
  name                         = "some-app"
  resource_group_name          = module.ramius.resource_group_name
  network_security_group_name  = module.ramius.worker_security_group_name
  priority                     = "3001"
  access                       = "Allow"
  direction                    = "Inbound"
  protocol                     = "Tcp"
  source_port_range            = "*"
  destination_port_range       = "30333"
  source_address_prefix        = "*"
  destination_address_prefixes = module.ramius.worker_address_prefixes.ipv4
}

IPv6

Azure does not provide public IPv6 addresses at the standard SKU.
