istio ambient mode still using iptables instead of ebpf

 

Istio ambient mode still uses IpTables instead of ebpf. Despite what was mentioned in the blog

https://istio.io/latest/blog/2023/ambient-ebpf-redirection/, saying that we can activate ebpf mode by running the following command

istioctl install --set profile=ambient --set values.cni.ambient.redirectMode="ebpf" 

Running this we get into an error saying redirectMode not supported.

Tried this with istioctl 1.24.4 and istio 1.23
