A county engineer claims every Pod shares the node's network namespace by default. What is the correct default networking behavior?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
By default each Pod gets its own IP on the cluster network—like its own apartment address—not a shared seat on the node's network namespace. hostNetwork is an opt-in exception, not the everyday path.
Full Explanation
Unless hostNetwork is explicitly set, Pods are given distinct IPs by the CNI plugin and isolated network namespaces. They do not share the host network namespace by default. Application workloads are not required to enable hostNetwork to receive cluster networking.
