docs(network): traffic classes as built, node-to-node on VLAN 46 (#576 )

NETWORK-traffic-classes.md described table 48 and rules 980/981/990/991, which #857 replaced with one table (47) decided by longest prefix, and listed management as not started. Rewritten to the live state: five classes, table 47 contents owned by bird, node IP and etcd on node0, the etcd leave-and-rejoin procedure, and the mixed-state hazard hit during the node IP move. The bird DaemonSet comment still named table 48. Closes #576 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Merge pull request 'feat(talos): node IP and etcd on VLAN 46 (#576 step 3)' (#922 ) from feat/node-ip-vlan-46 into master

+"""wiki-index: embedding index over the Notes repo's wiki/, fed from Gitea.
+
+Source of truth is the notes repository on Gitea. The index holds, per wiki
+note, the git blob sha, title and a bge-m3 vector of slug/title/aliases/tags/
+first paragraph. A sync fetches the repo tree, embeds every note whose blob sha
+changed (via wiki-embed, in-cluster) and drops notes that left the tree; it
+runs at start, on every push webhook from Gitea, and every RESYNC_SECONDS.
+
+HTTP:
+  POST /rank     {"query": str, "k": int}   -> {"rows": [{"slug","title","score"}], "index": {...}}
+  GET  /health   -> 200 always (liveness) with {"ready", "notes", "commit", "synced_at", "age_s", "syncing", "last_error"}
+  GET  /ready    -> 200 when an index exists, else 503 (readiness)
+  POST /webhook  Gitea push event, HMAC-SHA256 in X-Gitea-Signature -> {"queued": true}
+
+Credentials (Gitea token, webhook secret) are read from OpenBao through the
+Kubernetes auth role on every use; they never land in a Secret or a log line.
+Standard library only.

 # Traffic classes on the k8s nodes

-Issue #576. Three of the four classes are separated; management is not.
+Issue #576. Five classes, each on its own VLAN.

 ## Where each class runs

 | class | link | mechanism |
 |---|---|---|
 | Ceph replication | `ceph-san`, VLAN 49 | the whole link is handed to the OSD pod (Multus `host-device`) |
-| world→pod | `ingress0`, VLAN 47 | BGP session sourced there, so the advertised next hop is that address |
-| pod→world | `ingress0`, VLAN 47 | routing rule on the pod source prefix → table 47 |
-| pod↔pod | `pod0`, VLAN 48 | routing rule on pod source **and** destination → table 48 |
-| management | `mgmt0`, VLAN 40 | not started |
+| pod↔pod | `pod0`, VLAN 48 | pod-sourced traffic is routed from table 47; bird puts the peers' pod CIDRs there via `pod0` |
+| world↔pod | `ingress0`, VLAN 47 | BGP session sourced there (next hop of every LoadBalancer VIP); pod egress takes table 47's default |
+| node↔node | `node0`, VLAN 46 | the node InternalIP and etcd live there; so do apiserver↔kubelet, cilium-health and host→remote-pod traffic |
+| world↔node | `mgmt0`, VLAN 40 | API VIP for kubectl, talosctl from outside, node egress (DNS, NTP, image pulls) |

 Hard constraint, set by the owner: inter-node and pod traffic never traverses
-the UDM. Everything above stays on the 10G switch.
+the UDM. Everything but world↔node stays on the 10G switch. VLAN 46 and 48 are
+statically addressed, without a gateway; VLAN 46 is isolated in UniFi.

-## Why policy routing rather than moving the node IP
+## Pod traffic: one table

-Cilium reaches a peer's pods at that peer's Kubernetes InternalIP, in native
-and tunnel mode alike. `--ipv4-node` is overwritten from the Node object, and
-`nodePort.directRoutingDevice` selects the BPF NodePort device, not a next hop.
-Both were established by test (#837, #838), not by reading.
+Two rules, one per family, send every packet with a pod source to table 47
+(`talos/patches/site-homelab.yaml`, priorities 1000/1001, below main). The
+table decides by longest prefix; no rule carves out exceptions.

-So the InternalIP decides where pod traffic goes — unless the lookup happens in
-a different table. The rules do that, and nothing about the node's identity
-moves. The routing decision runs before Cilium's masquerade hook, so a rule
-matching the pod source sees the pod address, and the masquerade then rewrites
-it to the egress link's.
+bird (`kubernetes/infrastructure/bird/`) owns table 47 and fills it with:

-## Rule order
+- the node's attached networks — `mgmt0`, `ingress0`, `pod0`, `node0` —
+  taken from the interfaces;
+- the peers' pod CIDRs, learned over an iBGP mesh on `pod0`, next hop the
+  peer's `pod0` address;
+- the node's own pod CIDR via `cilium_host`, originated rather than read back
+  from the kernel (reading it back made BIRD depend on the shape of Cilium's
+  route, and KRT rejects the IPv4 one);
+- the egress default via the UDM on `ingress0`, from the node annotations
+  `net.renner.uno/egress-gw-v4/v6`.

-Lower priority runs first.
+`node0` has to be in the table: a pod reaching a node address — the
+`kubernetes` ClusterIP, which socket LB rewrites to the apiserver's advertise
+address, or a hostNetwork pod — would otherwise take the default to the UDM.

-| prio | match | table |
-|---|---|---|
-| 980 | src pod, dst pod | 48 |
-| 981 | src pod, dst pod (v4) | 48 |
-| 990 | dst `fd00::/8` | main |
-| 991 | dst `10.0.0.0/8` | main |
-| 1000 | src pod | 47 |
-| 1001 | src pod (v4) | 47 |
+The routing decision runs before Cilium's masquerade hook, so the rule sees the
+pod address and the masquerade then rewrites it to the egress link's.

-980/981 match source **and** destination. Source alone would also catch the
-node's own traffic to a pod, which would then leave with a `pod0` source — an
-address `CiliumNode.spec.addresses` does not list, so Cilium classifies it as
-`world` rather than `host`.
-
-990/991 are Cilium's `ipv4/ipv6NativeRoutingCIDR`, and they are what keeps
-cluster-internal traffic out of table 47. Without them a pod's packet to a
-service matches the source rule, finds only a default route, and leaves for the
-UDM — measured, in-cluster DNS stopped resolving.
-
-Traffic to a pod on the same node falls through on its own: table 48 holds only
-the peers' CIDRs, so the lookup misses and 990/991 send it to main.
-
-## Where each table comes from
-
- **47** — two default routes declared per node in `talos/patches/k8s-*.yaml`.
-  The IPv6 gateway is the UDM's configured address on the segment, not the
-  RA-learned link-local; `accept_ra_defrtr` stays `0` on `ingress0` so the RA
-  default does not land in main.
- **48** — filled by the `bird` DaemonSet: an iBGP mesh over `pod0`, one route
-  per peer pod CIDR with the peer's `pod0` address as next hop.
-
-## The bird mesh
-
-`kubernetes/infrastructure/bird/`. Each node advertises only its own pod CIDR
-and installs what it learns into table 48. Cilium's routes in main are
-untouched, which is why the two coexist.
+Node-originated traffic does not match the rules and uses main, where Cilium
+routes each peer's pod CIDR via the peer's InternalIP — on `node0`.

 No address is written into this repo twice. Each node publishes its `pod0`
-addresses as `nodeAnnotations`, beside the `VLANConfig` that assigns them; the
-pod CIDRs come from the Node objects. An init container renders both from the
-API with `kubectl -o go-template-file`, excludes the node itself with a field
-selector, and ends with `bird -p` so BIRD's own parser gates startup.
+addresses as `nodeAnnotations` beside the `VLANConfig` that assigns them; the
+pod CIDRs come from the Node objects. bird's init container renders both from
+the API and ends with `bird -p`, so BIRD's own parser gates startup.

-The node's own CIDR is **originated**, not read back from the kernel. Reading
-it back made BIRD depend on the shape Cilium installs, and the IPv4 route is
-rejected outright: its next hop sits inside the prefix it describes, which KRT
-refuses with `strange next-hop`. The IPv6 route is a device route and passed,
-so the failure was silent on one family only.
+## Node↔node
+
+`kubelet.nodeIP.validSubnets` and `cluster.etcd.advertisedSubnets` point at
+VLAN 46. Talos picks one InternalIP per family, IPv4 first — the service CIDR
+is IPv4, and the apiserver's advertise address must match it.
+
+The API VIP stays on `mgmt0` for kubectl. No in-cluster client uses it:
+kubelet, scheduler, controller-manager and Cilium go through KubePrism
+(`localhost:7445`), which balances over every address of every control-plane
+member; pods use the ClusterIP.
+
+Talos never updates an existing etcd member's peer URLs
+(siderolabs/talos#12720). Changing `advertisedSubnets` means, per member:
+stage the config, `talosctl etcd forfeit-leadership`, `talosctl etcd leave`,
+reboot. `leave` removes only `/var/lib/etcd`; the node rejoins as a learner
+and is promoted. EPHEMERAL does not need a wipe.
+
+## Moving node IPs: the mixed state
+
+While some nodes have their InternalIP on the new network and some on the old,
+host→remote-pod traffic leaves with a node address that is not an InternalIP:
+the kernel picks the source from the route to the peer's InternalIP. Cilium
+classifies that as `world`, and every ingress policy that admits only
+`host`/`remote-node` (rook-ceph, monitoring, …) drops it. Kernel Ceph clients
+lose the OSDs on the other side; RBD mounts hang.
+
+Bridge it for the duration with a temporary `CiliumClusterwideNetworkPolicy`
+admitting the node subnets of both networks, both families, with
+`enableDefaultDeny: false` so it restricts nothing else, and delete it once
+every node has moved. Keep all OSD nodes schedulable while one is drained:
+draining two takes Ceph below its data availability.

 ## Failure behaviour

-Benign at every layer. An empty or absent table 48 makes 980/981 fall through
-to main, and pod traffic returns to VLAN 40 — unseparated, not broken. The same
-holds if the DaemonSet cannot start, which is the case during a cold rebuild
-until Gitea serves its image.
-
-## Management, the remaining class
-
-Not started. The levers differ per service and none of them is the node IP:
-
-| service | can leave the node IP? | lever |
-|---|---|---|
-| etcd | yes | `cluster.etcd.advertisedSubnets`; needs a reboot per node |
-| kube-apiserver endpoint | yes | it is a VIP — `Layer2VIPConfig.link` |
-| Talos API | n/a | `apid` answers on every node address; a firewall question |
-| kubelet | no | it *is* the node IP |
-
-Two approaches were rejected by the owner and are not to be proposed again:
-moving the node IP and etcd to `pod0` (#838), and relabelling VLAN 40 as the
-cluster VLAN while moving etcd and the API VIP to a new management VLAN.
-Replacing the CNI (#839, Antrea) was shelved.
-
-Note that the reasoning which produced that list also concluded pod↔pod was
-blocked, which policy routing disproved. Treat it as a record of decisions, not
-as an exhaustive analysis.
+If bird stops, table 47 empties, the rules find nothing and fall through to
+main: pod traffic returns to the node networks, unseparated rather than
+misrouted. The same holds during a cold rebuild until Gitea serves bird's
+image. The default route lives in table 47, not in the Talos config, so a
+default cannot outlive the specific routes and send pod traffic to the UDM.
