'''Issuing a Virtual IP to a Service Using MetalLB on Kubernetes'''

MetalLB is a load balancer implementation for bare metal Kubernetes clusters, using L2 advertisements. This tutorial will guide you through the process of setting up MetalLB in your Kubernetes cluster and assigning a virtual IP to a service.

'''Step 1: Install MetalLB'''

MetalLB can be installed via a manifest or using Helm. We'll use the manifest method here. 

'''1. Apply the MetalLB manifest:'''

{{{
kubectl apply -f
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metallb/metallb/v0.13.12/con
fig/manifests/metallb-native.yaml
}}}

Note: Ensure you're using the latest version of MetalLB. 

'''2. Verify the Installation.'''

`kubectl get pods -n metallb-system`
