In a typical {product-title} cluster setup, all nodes, including the control plane and compute nodes, reside in the same network. However, for edge computing scenarios, it can be beneficial to locate compute nodes closer to the edge. This often involves using different network segments or subnets for the remote nodes than the subnet used by the control plane and local compute nodes. Such a setup can reduce latency for the edge and allow for enhanced scalability.

Before installing {product-title}, you must configure the network properly to ensure that the edge subnets containing the remote nodes can reach the subnet containing the control plane nodes and receive traffic from the control plane too.

During cluster installation, assign permanent IP addresses to nodes in the network configuration of the `install-config.yaml` configuration file. If you do not do this, nodes might get assigned a temporary IP address that can impact how traffic reaches the nodes. For example, if a node has a temporary IP address assigned to it and you configured a bonded interface for a node, the bonded interface might receive a different IP address.

You can run control plane nodes in the same subnet or multiple subnets by configuring a user-managed load balancer in place of the default load balancer. With a multiple subnet environment, you can reduce the risk of your {product-title} cluster from failing because of a hardware failure or a network outage. For more information, see "Services for a user-managed load balancer" and "Configuring a user-managed load balancer".
