== Expected behavior for clusters without a CNI plugin
88+
Although {hcp-title} cluster installation is complete, the cluster cannot operate without a CNI plugin. Because the nodes are not ready, the workloads cannot deploy. For example, the {product-title} cluster web console is not available, so you must use the {oc-first} to log in to the cluster. Additionally, other OpenShift components such as the HAProxy-based Ingress Controller, image registry, and prometheus-based monitoring stack are not running. This is expected behavior until you install a CNI provider.

The default plugin for {hcp-title} is the xref:../networking/ovn_kubernetes_network_provider/about-ovn-kubernetes.adoc#about-ovn-kubernetes[OVN-Kubernetes network plugin]. This plugin is the only Red Hat supported CNI plugin for {hcp-title}.

20+
If you choose to use your own CNI for {hcp-title} clusters, it is strongly recommended that you obtain commercial support from the plugin vendor before creating your clusters. Red Hat support cannot assist with CNI-related issues such as pod to pod traffic for customers who choose to use their own CNI. Red Hat still provides support for all non-CNI issues. If you want CNI-related support from Red Hat, you must install the cluster with the default OVN-Kubernetes network plugin. For more information, see the xref:../rosa_architecture/rosa_policy_service_definition/rosa-policy-responsibility-matrix.adoc#rosa-policy-responsibility-matrix[responsibility matrix].
