If we are talking in OVN context, each virtual ovn-controller chassis
on the same host has to have a different IP / port to distinguish
between chassis. I don't think it's a useful configuration to have two
two incoming tunnel ports with the same config for the same IP that
are not served by separate DST IP addresses.
