In the vipNetworkList field, specify the Network ID to be specified and not the name of the network. The values.yaml can be updated as follows:

vipNetworkList:
    - networkName: 123ab456-1234-1abc-1234-1ab34cde5678
      cidr: 10.1.2.0/24

Ensure that tenant to be used with AKO is specified using the tenantName field. If the tenant is not specified, AKO will use the admin tenant as configured in the Controller by default.
