The kubeconfig file is typically located at `~/.kube/config` on your local machine. It contains configuration information for accessing Kubernetes clusters. To specify a different kubeconfig file location, use the `KUBECONFIG` environment variable or the `--kubeconfig` flag.
# Check the current context in the default kubeconfig file
kubectl config current-context
# Use a specific kubeconfig file
export KUBECONFIG=/path/to/your/kubeconfig
kubectl get nodes
# Alternatively, specify the kubeconfig file directly
kubectl --kubeconfig=/path/to/your/kubeconfig get pods
