Does OVN support CARP as a Virtual IP synchronization protocol ? (Without
disabling Port Security)

I’ve been trying to make it work but from what I did managed to understand.
CARP uses a mac address with following format 00-00-5E-00-01-{VRID}
It answers the ARP Request for Virtual Addresses with source mac of the
Main Interface but as arp.sha it uses the mac address mentioned above and
from what I could read on OVN source code it doesn’t seems like OVN matches
any arp response with different eth.source and arp.sha fields.
