Edges between services not forming between proxies

[jnapprogs]

I just started using Linkerd after following the Getting Started guide. In the guide, the services had edges between each other when I ran the command linkerd edges deploy -n emojivoto. When I injected Linkerd into my services, running kubectl get po shows that the sidecars are running. The Linkerd dashboard also verifies that my services are meshed; however, when I run linkerd edges deploy -n, I can see that there is an edge from linkerd-prometheus to my two services but there is none between each other. I was wondering if I'm missing some sort of configuration.

I'm currently using Amazon EKS to host my cluster.

Assuming that there is constant traffic between your services, is the traffic encrypted without Linkerd? If yes, Linkerd can't MITM your traffic and simply treats it as TCP. Usually, no additional configuration is required.
