- it connects to K8S using the kubeconfig and JWT token copied from install-cni to get Pod and Namespace. Since this is a short-running command, each invocation creates a new connection.
        - If so, calls `istio-iptables` with params to setup pod netns
        - If ambient, sets up the ambient logic.

- `istio-iptables`

To enable TLS for MinIO containers, acquire TLS certificates from a CA or create self-signed certificates. While creating / acquiring certificates ensure the corresponding domain names are set as per the standard [DNS naming conventions](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/statefulset/#pod-identity) in a Kubernetes StatefulSet (for a distributed MinIO setup). Then create a secret using

```bash

fs.s3a.committer.staging.tmp.path=/tmp/staging
fs.s3a.committer.staging.unique-filenames=true
fs.s3a.connection.establish.timeout=5000
fs.s3a.connection.ssl.enabled=false
fs.s3a.connection.timeout=200000
fs.s3a.endpoint=http://minio:9000
fs.s3a.impl=org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.S3AFileSystem

fs.s3a.committer.threads=2048 # Number of threads writing to MinIO
fs.s3a.connection.maximum=8192 # Maximum number of concurrent conns

Similarly, if your TLS certificates do not have the IP SAN for the MinIO server host, the MinIO Console may fail to validate the connection to the server. Use the `MINIO_SERVER_URL` environment variable  and specify the proxy-accessible hostname of the MinIO server to allow the Console to use the MinIO server API using the TLS certificate.
