I've sucessfully installed MetalLB on my Bare Metal Kubernetes cluster, but only pods assigned to the master Node seems to work.
MLB is configured on layer2, in the range of 192.168.0.100-192.168.0.200, and pods do get an IP when assigned to worker nodes, but those ips do not respond to any request.
If the assigned ip is curled inside the node, it works, yet if its curled from another node or machine, it doesnt respond.
Example:
# kubectl get pods -o wide

--------- PING WORKS FROM OTHER MACHINES ----------
I've just found out this, so it might be a problem with iptables? i dont really know how it works on MetalLB, i can ping the ip (192.168.0.111) from other machines and it responds
