Configure kubectl command to access remote kubernetes cluster on azure

[ForumBot]

Found a way to access remote kubernetes cluster without ssh'ing to one of the nodes in cluster. You need to edit ~/.kube/config file as below :

```
apiVersion: v1
clusters:
- cluster:
server: http://:
name: test
contexts:
- context:
cluster: test
user: test
name: test

```

Then set context by executing:

```
kubectl config use-context test

```

After this you should be able to interact with the cluster.

Note : To add certification and key use following link : [http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/kubeconfig-file/](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/kubeconfig-file/)

Alternately, you can also try following command

```
kubectl config set-cluster test-cluster --server=http://: --api-version=v1
kubectl config use-context test-cluster

```
