[CKA Question] Installing CNI Addons & Metrics Server: Do I need to memorize URLs? 🧐

Kubernetes
#1

Hi everyone!

While practicing with CKA mock exams in KodeKloud, I noticed several tasks requiring the installation of CNI addons (like Calico or Flannel) or the Metrics Server using commands like kubectl apply -f <URL>.

I have two quick questions for those who have taken the exam:

  1. Do I need to memorize these direct URLs for the official exam?
  2. If not, where exactly can I find them during the exam? Are they available directly on the official documentation (kubernetes.io/docs), or are they provided inside the exam environment/prompts?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!

The general rule on docs during the exam – you’ll only expect to search the resources on the “approved list”. If a class of docs isn’t on that list, such as docs for CNI or the metric server, then if you need it for a question, the exam question will include a link to those docs.

So if you need to know it, you won’t need to memorize it – they’ll just give you a link those docs.
