Network Policies

The Network Policies screen lists all NetworkPolicy resources across namespaces. For each policy you can inspect its rules and visualize traffic flow.

Columns

Column Description
Name NetworkPolicy name
Namespace Namespace
Pod Selector Label selector that the policy applies to
Policy Types Ingress, Egress, or both
Age Time since creation

Actions

View YAML

Double-click a row to open the full NetworkPolicy manifest. Network policies are view-only in this panel; use the Apply YAML workspace tool to create or modify policies.

Visual Policy Diagram

Click the Diagram button on a row to open a visual representation of the policy's ingress and egress rules. The diagram shows:

  • The selected pod group (center)
  • Ingress rules — sources that are allowed to reach the pods
  • Egress rules — destinations the pods are allowed to reach
  • Port and protocol annotations on each connection

This is useful for auditing complex policies without reading raw YAML.

Tips

  • Filter by Namespace to audit all policies in a specific namespace.
  • An empty pod selector ({}) means the policy applies to all pods in the namespace — look for this in the Pod Selector column.
  • A missing policy type means no restriction on that direction: a policy with only Ingress does not restrict egress at all.
