questions on loading network policies

[cwrx777]

Reference

Network policies should be placed the /var/lib/rancher/k3s/server/manifests directory, where they will automatically be deployed on startup.

1. Can network policy be applied after k3s starts, i.e using kubectl apply -f'?
2. If it must be provided during startup, can the network policy file be located in a custom folder and the path is passed to k3s as command line argument or config file?

You can add manifests to that directory at any time. See https://docs.rke2.io/helm#automatically-deploying-manifests-and-helm-charts
