bigIpExternalServiceIps parameter in quickstart existing #36

Documentation link

While deploying https://raw.githubusercontent.com/F5Networks/f5-aws-cloudformation-v2/main/examples/quickstart/quickstart-existing-network.yaml

The template calls for bigIpExternalServiceIps. The description is "An array of one or more private IP addresses to apply to the external network interface as secondary private addresses."

Describe the problem

The description states it is an array or one or more private IP addresses. However if you attempt to launch with 1 IP address, the template fails to launch. You must enter 2 IP addresses. Additionally, the IPs must be separated by a comma with no space. The comma is called out here -> https://github.com/F5Networks/f5-aws-cloudformation-v2/tree/main/examples/quickstart#deploying-this-solution, but not while deploying the template.

Suggested fix

Edit description to state 2 IP addresses are required and they must be comma separated.

More importantly, whatever IPs are entered here are not assigned to the external NIC anyway.
