What you expected to happen:
Expected the CNI to bootstrap the network layer in the cluster

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
Unfortunately, this happens intermittently

Environment:

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
  • 1.28
• CNI Version
  • v1.18.1-eksbuild.3
• OS (e.g: cat /etc/os-release):

NAME="Amazon Linux"
VERSION="2"
ID="amzn"
ID_LIKE="centos rhel fedora"
VERSION_ID="2"
PRETTY_NAME="Amazon Linux 2"
ANSI_COLOR="0;33"
CPE_NAME="cpe:2.3:o:amazon:amazon_linux:2"
HOME_URL="https://amazonlinux.com/"
SUPPORT_END="2025-06-30"

• Kernel (e.g. uname -a):
  • Linux 5.10.217-205.860.amzn2.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 21 16:52:24 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Notes:
Of course, one could argue that the simply the solution is to add the ability to delete ENIs to the aws-node cluster role but is that the right way?
