The first time you access the cluster using a proxy address from a browser you will be prompted
 | 
			
		||||
for a username and password which can also be found in the `User` and `Password` fields of the `kubernetes_auth`
 | 
			
		||||
file.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Redirect
 | 
			
		||||
A `redirect` request on a service will return a HTTP redirect response which identifies a specific node that
 | 
			
		||||
can handle the request. Since the hostname that is returned is usually only accessible from inside the cluster
 | 
			
		||||
this feature is useful only for code running inside the cluster. Subsequent `redirect` calls to the same
 | 
			
		||||
resource may return different results e.g. when the service picks different replica nodes to serve the request.
 | 
			
		||||
This feature can be useful to short circuit calls to the proxy server by obtaining the address of a node on the
 | 
			
		||||
cluster which can be used for further requests which do not involve the proxy server.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For example, the query below is run on
 | 
			
		||||
a GCE virtual machine `oban` that is running in the same project and GCE default network as the Kubernetes
 | 
			
		||||
cluster. The `-L` flag tells curl to follow the redirect information returned by the redirect call.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
satnam@oban:~$ curl -L -k -u admin:4mty0Vl9nNFfwLJz https://104.197.5.247/api/v1beta1/redirect/services/elasticsearch-logging/

  },

  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
 | 
			
		||||
}
 |

```
 |

We can examine the actual redirect header:

		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```

This shows that the request to `https://104.197.5.247/api/v1beta1/redirect/services/elasticsearch-logging/` is redirected to `http://10.244.2.7:9200`.
 | 
			
		||||
If we examine the pods on the cluster we can see that `http://10.244.2.7` is the address of a pod that is running the Elasticsearch service.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```

$ kubectl get pods
