Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...] We have an environment that uplink name is not always the same across all worker/master nodes. in some it's called eth1 and others eth2 for example. right now if we deploy VPP DS it'll take config map (https://github.com/projectcalico/vpp-dataplane/blob/ad7080150fe82518b1e0f612f88b6851def9c271/yaml/generated/calico-vpp.yaml#L182) having a static config with uplink name there.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen. To solve the issue now we have to keep deploying multiple DS with a nodeselector or affinity rules to be able to differenciate between node uplink interfaces , it'll make our deployment complex as we have to keep track of config maps sparely per node for vpp.

It would be nice to be able to have a way to configure uplink configurable per node but a bit easier than maintaining the whole deployment and config map separate.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.
