      Epic Goal

      As an administrator for OpenShift on vSphere using the IPI installation workflow, I need Keepalived configured with unicast instead of multicast.

      Why is this important?

      OCP IPI on vSphere IPI configures keepalived in multicast mode, which can lead to VRRP ID clashes if multiple clusters with similar cluster name are deployed on the same L2 network. This has been fixed on OCP IPI on bare metal, but not on vSphere IPI.

      Previous Work

      Add support for Keepalived mode update:

      [vsphere][spike] Will unicast keepalived work?
