Abstract
A system and method for capturing resource usage information in a network for namespaces in which pods operate are described herein. A data structure specifies a topology that includes a gateway and routing addresses in a network whose usage is to be captured. The data structure is provided to an API of a master node controlling the pods. A controller in the master node enforces the data structure and reports results back to the API.
