Multi host ignite VMs networking based on WeaveNet not working as expected (reopening issue #628) #642

Hello WeaveWorks team,

I am reopening issue #628, the applied fix did make things slightly better but it did not fix the underlying issue.
Two Hosts, on both I run the WeaveWorks CNI docker image as described in issue #628.
I then installed ignite on both hosts and started a Ignite VM on each host with the flag --network-plugin cni respectively. On each host, the output of ifconfig is (I filtered out the other network interfaces that are not relevant to this issue):

I can ping 10.40.0.0 from 10.32.0.1 and vise versa, this tells me that WeaveWorks CNI is working as expected.
But when I SSH into each VM, they both have the same output for ifconfig:

eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 10.61.0.2  netmask 255.255.0.0  broadcast 10.61.255.255
        inet6 fe80::3804:88ff:fec8:a6ef  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
        ether 3a:04:88:c8:a6:ef  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 303  bytes 34991 (34.9 KB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 215  bytes 25732 (25.7 KB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
        inet 127.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0
        inet6 ::1  prefixlen 128  scopeid 0x10<host>
        loop  txqueuelen 1000  (Local Loopback)
        RX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

As you can see, they both have the same IP on the WeaveWorks CNI network (obviously not what was expected), rather than each having a dedicated IP. There is no more hanging or delay, so that issue is gone now, but I still cant do multi host Ignite VM networking using WeaveNet CNI.
I also removed the file /etc/cni/net.d/10-ignite.conflist before running the ignite run command. The content of the newly created /etc/cni/net.d/10-ignite.conflist file is:

{
	"cniVersion": "0.4.0",
	"name": "ignite-cni-bridge",
	"plugins": [
		{
			"type": "bridge",
			"bridge": "ignite0",
			"isGateway": true,
			"isDefaultGateway": true,
			"promiscMode": true,
			"ipMasq": true,
			"ipam": {
				"type": "host-local",
				"subnet": "10.61.0.0/16"
			}
		},
		{
			"type": "portmap",
			"capabilities": {
				"portMappings": true
			}
		},
		{
			"type": "firewall"
		}
	]
}

Or the documentation is lacking some instructions here, or there is a bug somewhere. Could someone please have a look and help me solve this issue please?

Thanks
