1.Can we get azure kubectl(exe/bin) as downloadable link instead of installing it using command line 'az aks install-cli' or can I use the kubectl from kuberenetes?

2.Is there any azure-cli command to change the default location of kubeconfig file, As by default it is pointing to '.kube\config' in windows ?

Example : Instead of using '--kubeconfig' flag like 'kubectl get nodes --kubeconfig D:\config' can we able to change the default location ?

  1. you can use the default kubernetes CLI (kubectl) and you can get credentials with the Azure CLI az aks get-credentials --resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP> --name <AKS_CLUSTER_NAME> or over the Azure portal UI.

  2. You can use the flag --kubeconfig=<PATH> or you can overwrite the default value of the variable KUBECONFIG that is pointing to $HOME/.kube/config with KUBECONFIG=<PATH>.

Example:

KUBECONFIG=D:\config 
#or 
export KUBECONFIG=D:\config
