I'm pretty sure the answer is C, but I'll double-check the Kubeadm documentation just to be sure. I don't want to risk getting this wrong.

I remember learning about the Kubeadm authentication methods in class, but I'm drawing a blank right now. I'll have to use the process of elimination to try and figure this out.
OC
Octavio 1 year ago
Okay, I've got this. Kubeadm defaults to X509 client certs, Bootstrap tokens, and Service Account Tokens for authentication. I'm confident that's the right answer.

Emilio 1 year ago
Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know Kubeadm uses some form of authentication, but I can't recall the exact details. I'll have to think this through carefully.
