  1. Challenge

    Expose an Application with a NodePort Service

    There is a Deployment called willow in the buffy Namespace.

    Expose this Deployment on port 8082 and target port 80 using a NodePort-type Service called willow-svc.

  2. Challenge

    Provide Network Access between Pods via a NetworkPolicy

    There are several Pods in the giles Namespace. The xander Pod needs to be able to reach out to both api-1 and api-2, but it currently cannot do so due to the NetworkPolicy setup.

    Without creating, changing, or removing any existing NetworkPolicies, provide the xander Pod with access to api-1 and api-2, but not any other Pods in the Namespace. You should be able to do this by only making changes to the xander Pod and no other objects.
