talos serve admin
talos serve admin
Run only the admin endpoints
Synopsis
WARNING: this command serves unauthenticated admin endpoints. You are responsible for placing it behind a trusted network boundary that authenticates and authorizes every admin request (for example, an IAM proxy, mTLS gateway, or a reverse proxy with internal-only routing). Talos itself adds no authN or authZ middleware on the admin surface.
Runs only the admin endpoints for API key and network management.
This mode is designed for internal tools, CI/CD, and operator workflows. It exposes the full read/write management surface: API key creation, rotation, revocation, verification, network management, and signing-key management.
Deploy this server behind a trusted network boundary (private VPC, admin VLAN, or authenticating reverse proxy) — never expose it to the public internet without an external authZ layer in front.
