Howdy!

https://kube-vip.io does two things: - Control Plane HA w/BGP or ARP - Service Type: LoadBalancer w/BGP or ARP

It is similar to metallb but has a number of differences under the covers in how it works inside Kubernetes, it is cloud controller agnostic so as long as something attaches an IP to spec.IngressIP then kube-vip will advertise it. For edge deployments loadBalancers addresses can use the local DHCP for addresses etc..

This was atually the part I was curious about. Could you elaborate? Or is there a design doc somewhere?

https://kube-vip.io/hybrid/services/ covers a bit of it, the idea is to be decoupled so any on-premises environment can throw together their own CCM that speaks to their local network or IPAM.
