> Creating multiple L3 isolation domains with the same CIDRs and custom L3 networks for each domain can lead to overlapping IP addresses when attached to a NAKS deployment. This overlap could cause issues if these networks are attached to the same pod. Currently, we prevent overlaps between L3 networks which have the `OSDevice` plugin type as such overlaps shouldn't be permitted in the Operating System Layer.

> For L3 networks with other plugin types: `DPDK, SRIOV, etc` we don't restrict this behavior and should they have overlapping CIDRS and attached to the same pod, there are possible issues that could occur:
34+
> - Routing Confusion: When two networks have the same CIDR, the router may not know where to send packets leading to unpredictable behavior.
35+
> - IP Address Conflicts: Communication between devices with the same IP address could be confusing.
36+
> - Troubleshooting Issues: If L3 networks have overlapping CIDRs, it can be difficult to troubleshoot and diagnose errors.
