LFS258 Lab 10.3 - ubuntu pod no connectivity

Mattie112

First the lab asks you to create a ubuntu pod

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: ubuntu
spec:
  containers:
  - name: ubuntu
    image: ubuntu:latest
    command: [ "sleep" ]
    args: [ "infinity" ]

Then run the following:
apt update ; apt install -y curl dnsutils

However it seems that the ubuntu pod has no connectivity as the apt update will timeout. Switching the container to debian:latest also does not work. Is something wrong with the initial state?

Small update:
This morning I tried it 5 times over an hour or two with no luck. Now 4~5 hours later: it works!

Not sure if this was fixed or if there is a lab environment with connectivity troubles but perhaps worth to check?
