This setting controls whether OIDC provider should be used as a proxy for kubeconfig download. Enabling this option will also disable the possibility of using Share feature on the cluster details.

Enable External Clusters

External clusters feature allows you to connect third-party Kubernetes clusters in a read-only mode to your Kubermatic project. Those clusters will not be managed by the Kubermatic Kubernetes Platform therefore the available information will be limited. Clusters on the list will have an External badge to indicate their origin.

User Projects Limit

This setting controls how project creation will be handled by the Kubermatic. The administrator can control if regular users should be able to create projects. There is also an option to control maximum number of projects that regular users will be able to create. The User Projects Limit is controlled on a per-user basis and affects only non-admin users.

Resource Quota

Resource Quota settings provide an easy way to control the size of machines used to create user clusters. The administrator can also control if selection of instances with GPU should be possible. Every node size that does not match the specified criteria will be filtered out and not displayed to the user.
