…network policies for services backing webhooks The intents-operator may create a network policy for allowing traffic for services backing a webhook. This new flag will mark the operator whether to restrict this network policy, so only traffic from the control-plane would be allowed, or to allow all services to access the service.
The nerwork mapper and the intents-operator need to match IP addresses to the control plane on some occasions. For this matching, we are using the CIDR with the prefix length. On some platform, like GKE, you need to set the prefix length so the matching would recognize a workload as the control plane correctly, for example on GKE https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/best-practices/networking

This new flag will mark the operator whether to restrict this network policy, so only traffic from the control-plane would be allowed, or to allow all services to access the service.
Support setting control plane IPv4 CIDR prefix length:
The nerwork mapper and the intents-operator need to match IP addresses to the control plane on some occasions. For this matching, we are using the CIDR with the prefix length.
On some platform, like GKE, you need to set the prefix length so the matching would recognize a workload as the control plane correctly, for example on GKE https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/best-practices/networking
