For non-HA deployment, you need three free IP addresses - one free IP address for load balancer and one free IP address for the Kubernetes control plane and one IP address for node. For HA deployment, along with these three IP addresses you'll need two more IP addresses for second and third nodes. Host names should be mapped to the free IP addresses on the DNS before assigning. All the five IP addresses should be on the same VLAN that is selected for deployment.
The way it is written, the DNS part is only mentioned after "HA deployment" - is that requirement only for HA, not for non-HA?
And "all five IP addresses" must then refer to HA deployment - but in non-HA, can all IPs be on different VLANs then? Gut feel is they cannot but the docs are not really helping out in this case.
Thanks,
