Cilium, Easy (Beginner), Commands. https://k8wiz.com/uquiz/how-can-you-see-which-node-currently-announces-a-service-ip-with-cilium-l2-announcements

- A. Check the holder of the cilium-l2announce Lease for that Service
- B. Read the nodeName field in the Service's status conditions
- C. Look at the CiliumL2AnnouncementPolicy status for that Service
- D. Run cilium status --verbose on any node and find the Service

**Answer:** Check the holder of the cilium-l2announce Lease for that Service

**Explanation:** Each announced Service gets a Lease named cilium-l2announce-<namespace>-<service> in Cilium's namespace, usually kube-system. Its holder is the node that answers ARP for the Service IP. The policy status only reports errors in the policy itself, such as an invalid selector.
