What this PR does / why we need it:

L3VNI and L3VPN already allow for user provided rt export / import, adding to l2vni too.

Special notes for your reviewer:

Release note:

Allow user specified route targets for L2VNI

AI Guidelines Acknowledgment:

  • I have reviewed all changes in this PR, including any AI-generated content, and I take full responsibility for its accuracy and correctness.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • L2VNI resources now support optional export and import route targets for controlling L2 EVPN route exchange.
    • Each route-target list supports up to 100 ASN- or IPv4-based entries.
    • Configured route targets are applied to generated EVPN networking configuration.
  • Bug Fixes

    • L2VNI route targets are now validated during resource creation and updates.
  • Documentation

    • Added API and configuration guidance for the new route-target settings.

Operators need explicit control over which L2 EVPN routes are exported
and imported instead of relying only on FRR defaults. Add optional import
and export fields, then propagate them through generated CRDs, manifests,
and API documentation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

L2VNI resources now support optional export and import route-target lists. The lists are validated, converted into FRR configuration, rendered in FRR templates, documented, and covered by unit, webhook, integration, and end-to-end tests.

Changes

L2VNI Route-Target Support

Layer / File(s) Summary
API contract and CRD schema
api/v1alpha1/..., config/..., charts/..., operator/..., API-DOCS.md, website/content/docs/...
Adds optional atomic exportRTs and importRTs arrays to L2VNISpec, generated CRDs, API documentation, and EVPN configuration documentation.
Validation and configuration conversion
internal/conversion/validate_*.go, internal/conversion/frr_conversion.go, internal/conversion/*_test.go, internal/webhooks/l2vni_webhook_test.go
Validates L2VNI route targets, removes the intermediate VNI validation shape, converts route targets into separate FRR L2VNI configuration entries, and tests valid and invalid inputs.
FRR configuration rendering
internal/frr/config.go, internal/frr/templates/*, internal/frr/*_test.go, internal/frr/testdata/*, internal/conversion/frr_conversion_test.go
Separates L2VNIs from L3VNIs and renders export and import route-target commands for each L2 VNI.
EVPN end-to-end verification
e2etests/pkg/frr/*, e2etests/tests/evpn_l2.go
Adds exact route-target matching for Type 2 routes and verifies L2 reachability with and without configured route targets.

IMHO, we should take the opportunity and rename the existent vniConfigs to l3VniConfigs.

Same for the parameter - we should rename VNIs to L3VNIs.

should we add another test, where one of the RTs matches, but the other doesn't ?
plus another with empty route targets.

Custom L2VNI route targets must reach FRR so operators can build
selective EVPN import and export policies. Convert validated API values
into FRR configuration while preserving default behavior when both lists
are omitted.

Verify advertised Type-2 routes carry configured export targets and
remote routes become reachable through matching import targets. This
protects end-to-end policy behavior beyond generated FRR configuration.

Route-target comparisons use complete extended-community tokens so a
configured target cannot match a longer target prefix.
