test(bdd): cover secure multi-region Pylon registration - #1310
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds an outside-in BDD feature for secure multi-region LLM registration. It provisions local clusters, configures HTTPS router discovery and region-B routing, validates router identities and registration metrics, invokes an LLM, and adds live and wiring test coverage. ChangesSecure multi-region LLM registration
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds multi-region registration coverage, but the scenario currently uses the wrong control-plane fixture and omits trace context on its WatchStargates calls, which can hide wiring errors and reduce diagnostics. It is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to correct these test issues. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

- Around line 81-88: Update the command in the “When I run command” step to
derive the region-B assertion from grpcurl output: count the advertised router
identities and verify exactly two are present, while also adding a negative
check that rejects any dashed pod-IP hostname. Remove the unconditional constant
output and retain the existing grpcurl invocation and TLS/authority checks.
- Around line 22-27: Update the region-B SAN assertion to use
addons.llm.pki.dnsNames, ensuring region-b-watch.nvcf.svc.cluster.local is
validated through the configuration field mapped to
llmRequestRouter.certificate.dnsNames; remove reliance on
addons.llm.requestRouter.grpcTls.dnsNames.
In `@tests/bdd/godog_test.go`:
- Around line 1172-1179: Resolve the revive line-length-limit findings for the
regionAWatchCommand, regionBWatchCommand, and pylonMetricsCommand constants
without changing their command-string values, since commandRanExactly requires
byte-for-byte matches. Suppress the lint rule for this constant block or load
the expected command text from the feature file.
In `@tests/bdd/scripts/install-llm-region-b.sh`:
- Around line 94-133: Update the region-b-watch resource creation around the
kubectl apply block to also create an equivalent Service and Endpoints alias in
the control-plane context, preserving the existing namespace, ports, and
control_plane_ip mapping so region-b-watch.nvcf.svc.cluster.local resolves
there.

grpcurl official documentation custom metadata -H traceparent
💡 Result:
To include custom metadata, such as a W3C traceparent header, in a request made with grpcurl, you use the -H flag [1][2]. Because gRPC metadata is implemented as HTTP/2 headers on the wire [3][4][5], you can pass the traceparent value by providing it as a standard header in the command line [1][6]. The syntax is: grpcurl -H "traceparent: " <service/method> For example: grpcurl -H "traceparent: 00-4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736-00f067aa0ba902b7-01" -d '{"id": 1234}' grpc.server.com:443 my.service.Service/Method Key points: - The -H flag can be used multiple times if you need to pass additional metadata or a tracestate header alongside the traceparent [1][6]. - Ensure your traceparent value adheres to the W3C Trace Context format (e.g., version-trace_id-parent_span_id-trace_flags) so that your tracing backend can correctly parse and associate the request [5][7][8]. - grpcurl sends these as metadata, which the gRPC server will receive and can then use to continue a distributed trace [3][4].

grpcurl fullstorydev grpcurl -H custom metadata official README
💡 Result:
To add custom metadata to a request using grpcurl, use the -H flag, similar to how headers are passed in the standard curl tool [1][2]. You can specify multiple headers by providing the -H flag multiple times [1]. The syntax for the argument is name:value [1][3]. Example command: grpcurl -H "header1:value1" -H "header2:value2" -d '{"id": 1234}' grpc.server.com:443 my.custom.server.Service/Method Key details for metadata: - If a header name is provided without a value (e.g., -H "my-header:"), the value is treated as an empty string [3]. - For binary headers (header names ending in -bin), grpcurl expects the value to be base64-encoded [3]. If the value cannot be base64-decoded, it is sent as-is [3]. - Headers are processed by the MetadataFromHeaders function, which trims whitespace and converts header names to lowercase [3].

Use the multi-cluster control-plane profile fixture.
Line 1246 writes clusterName: ncp-local through writeProfileHandoffArtifact, but this scenario uses the ncp-local-cp control plane. This differs from the existing multi-cluster wiring test at line 1085 and can hide a wrong control-plane identity in registration wiring. Replace this call with writeMulticlusterProfileHandoffArtifact.

Why
Issue #1292 identified a cross-region discovery escape: unit and chart tests did not prove that the self-managed operator surface forwards a secure remote Watch URI or that one Pylon can recursively register with concrete routers backed by both Deployment and StatefulSet workloads.
What changed
Customer Release Notes
Not customer visible.
Plan Summary
The live BDD adds a temporary Region B request-router Helm release and local Gateway API resources inside the disposable k3d topology. It does not change production resources.
