Description

Input validation exists that prevents the deletion of any IP alias within the subnet of a defined CARP IP. As mentioned in #2406 it's intended to prevent accidentally breaking CARP on that subnet.

To reproduce:
  1. Create the CARP VIP 198.51.100.1/24 with description "Test CARP VIP"
  2. Create the IP Alias VIP 198.51.100.2/25 with description "Test IP Alias VIP"
  3. Apply changes then delete the IP Alias VIP. The input validation text says:
    This entry cannot be deleted because it is still referenced by a CARP IP with the description Test IP Alias VIP

The input validation should instead reference "Test CARP VIP".

The input validation check is intended and not an error - see the referenced issue.
