Updating kubectl on the Bastion

With the update of EKS, the kubectl binary on the bastion host must also be updated. You must use a kubectl version that is within one minor version difference of your Amazon EKS cluster control plane. For example, a 1.26 kubectl client works with Kubernetes 1.25 clusters. A list of supported Kubernetes binaries can be found here (external site).

For information on installing kubectl, see Creating and Configuring the Bastion.
