Network Addressing Requirements¶
Network addressing requirements must be taken into consideration when planning a StarlingX installation.
Note
If the default subnets of cluster-pod and cluster-service are not changed, ensure that no IP overlaps with other provisioned subnets.

The oam and admin network requires an extra gateway address.
The management network requires an extra gateway address when the admin network is not used.
