Describe the issue: 

While configuring multiple networks, OCP provides following CNI plug-ins for creating additional networks in the cluster;

- bridge
- host-device
- ipvlan
- macvlan
- sr-iov

For each of the above types, we have provided steps for configuring ipam CNI plug-in with static IP address assignment and there is a bug in that section.

Above, I have provided direct URL for each of the CNI plug-ins where the bug is there.


The bug is, in the static IP assignment section, below configuration is mentioned;

    "routes": [ 
      {
        "dst": "<dst>" 
        "gw": "<gw>" 
      }
    ],


In the above configuration, a comma ","  after adding the 'dst' is missing. It should be ;


    "routes": [ 
      {
        "dst": "<dst>", <--------
        "gw": "<gw>" 
      }
    ],



Customer copied the configuration from the doc and replaced the values (like <dst> <gw> etc values) and then it resulted in issues like 'net-attach-def' NOT getting auto created, 'network' operator goes in degraded state etc.

Adding the missing comma, resolved all the issues.


Suggestions for improvement: 
Already mentioned above.
