Recommended way to set ENABLE_PREFIX_DELEGATION

[soostdijck]

Description

The amount of pods per node is limited by the vpc cni addon, but there is a feature to increase the limit to something useful by setting "ENABLE_PREFIX_DELEGATION" and "WARM_PREFIX_TARGET" in the EKS cluster.

What is the recommended way to do this? I see other EKS modules that simply fire up a kubectl and set the settings, but that isn't very elegant (plus local-exec won't work using TFcloud).

Unfortunately, that is the current method for enabling this functionality. You can refer to the example I provided here that demonstrates how to achieve this in Terraform

There seems to be a 3rd-party provider that makes it nicer...

(A 3rd-party provider is not ideal though)
