Features are advertised as labels in the Kubernetes Node object.
## Built-in labels
Label creation in nfd-worker is performed by a set of separate modules called
label sources. The
[`core.labelSources`](../reference/worker-configuration-reference.md#corelabelsources)
configuration option (or
[`-label-sources`](../reference/worker-commandline-reference.md#-label-sources)
flag) of nfd-worker controls which sources to enable for label generation.
All built-in labels use the `feature.node.kubernetes.io` label namespace and
have the following format.
```plaintext
feature.node.kubernetes.io/<feature> = <value>
```
> **NOTE:** Consecutive runs of nfd-worker will update the labels on a given
> node. If features are not discovered on a consecutive run, the corresponding
> label will be removed. This includes any restrictions placed on the
> consecutive run, such as restricting discovered features with the
> [`-label-whitelist`](../reference/master-commandline-reference.md#-label-whitelist)
> flag of nfd-master or
> [`core.labelWhiteList`](../reference/worker-configuration-reference.md#corelabelwhitelist)
> option of nfd-worker.

| **`custom-rdma.capable`** | true | The node has an RDMA capable Network adapter |
| **`custom-rdma.enabled`** | true | The node has the needed RDMA modules loaded to run RDMA traffic |
| | | |
## User defined labels
NFD has many extension points for creating vendor and application specific
labels. See the [customization guide](customization-guide.md) for
detailed documentation.
## Extended resources
NFD is able to create extended resources, see the
[NodeFeatureRule](custom-resources.md#nodefeaturerule) CRD and its
[extendedResources](#customization-guide.md#extendedresources) field for more
details.
Note that NFD is not a replacement for the usage of device plugins.
An example use-case for extended resources could be based on custom feature
(created e.g. with [feature files](#customization-guide.md#feature-files) that
exposes the node SGX EPC memory section size. This value will then be turned
into an extended resource of the node, allowing PODs to request that resource
and the Kubernetes scheduler to schedule such PODs to only those nodes which
have a sufficient capacity of said resource left.
