      Right now, ovn-controller mounts a HostPath with the vswitchd bridge management socket to program the switch. HostPaths imply privileges available to the container. If we'd like to de-escalate ovn-controller container, we should remove the requirement of AF_UNIX socket when connecting to vswitchd.

       

      As of right now, ovn-controller assumes unix: (AF_INET) scheme is used to connect to vswitchd. Changing this is out of scope for this task. This task will track the switch to AF_INET connection scheme once it's supported by ovn-controller.

       

      With switch need to be ensured network exporter is adapted keeps working https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OSPRH-12558
