However, Istio also provides a feature to bundle these with the charts, which is convenient when installing from remote charts.
For details, see `copy-templates` Makefile target, and `manifests/zzz_profile.yaml`.

Any changes to this folder should have a `make copy-templates` applied afterwards.

Warning: unlike the `IstioOperator` profiles, these profiles cannot enable or disable certain components.

The code automatically detects the proxyUID and proxyGID from RunAsUser/RunAsGroup and exclude them from interception, defaulting to 1337

### Overview

- [istio-cni Helm chart](../manifests/charts/istio-cni/templates)
    - `install-cni` daemonset - main function is to install and help the node CNI, but it is also a proper server and interacts with K8S, watching Pods for recovery.

- if deployed by manifest, add env `FELIX_WORKLOADSOURCESPOOFING` with value `Any` in `spec.template.spec.containers.env` for daemonset `calico-node`. (This will allow PODs with specified annotation to skip the rpf check. )

### GKE notes

On GKE, 'kube-system' is required.

If using `helm template`, `--set cni.cniBinDir=/home/kubernetes/bin` is required - with `helm install`

Note: If making any changes to the charts or values.yaml in this dir, first read [UPDATING-CHARTS.md](UPDATING-CHARTS.md)

Istio installer is a modular, 'a-la-carte' installer for Istio. It is based on a
fork of the Istio helm templates, refactored to increase modularity and isolation.

Goals:
- Improve upgrade experience: users should be able to gradually roll upgrades, with proper

Run `certtool.exe` and specify the configuration file to generate a certificate:

```
certtool.exe --generate-self-signed --load-privkey private.key --template cert.cnf --outfile public.crt
```

## 4. Install Certificates from Third-party CAs
