Name Description
POLICY_UNSPECIFIED Default behavior. GKE selects the image based on node type. For CPU and TPU nodes, the image will not allow loading external kernel modules. For GPU nodes, the image will allow loading any module, whether it is signed or not.
ENFORCE_SIGNED_MODULES Enforced signature verification: Node pools will use a Container-Optimized OS image configured to allow loading of *Google-signed* external kernel modules. Loadpin is enabled but configured to exclude modules, and kernel module signature checking is enforced.
DO_NOT_ENFORCE_SIGNED_MODULES Mirrors existing DEFAULT behavior:
