Traffic forwarding between peer route domains is prevented unless strict isolation is disabled on at least one of the route domains involved.	true

Sample CR

apiVersion: k8s.f5net.com/v1
kind: Vrf
metadata:
  name: rd-strict-1
  namespace: f5-bnk
spec:
  strictIsolation: true

Sample CR (strict isolation disabled)

apiVersion: k8s.f5net.com/v1
kind: Vrf
metadata:
  name: rd-open-1
  namespace: f5-bnk
spec:
  strictIsolation: false

Create and apply VRF CR

1. Copy one of the sample CRs into a YAML <vrf.yaml> file.

2. Apply the VRF CR:

   kubectl create -f vrf.yaml
   

3. Verify the resource:

   kubectl get -f vrf.yaml
