This video will show users how to leverage Assisted-Installer deployments with custom networking such as static, bonded interfaces, along with 3rd party CNI integration (Calico). We'll demonstrate how you can configure a pfSense gateway for BGP peering so that pods can be reached without the need for an ingress. This deployment will showcase a Single Node OpenShift (SNO) deployment via a vCenter virtual machine which will be managed using govc commands.
