I am unfortunately not very up-to-date with Mesos, but I reckon it is fair
to assume that in the current status N/S connectivity to containers should
be handled outside of mesos infrastructure, ie: OVN can define a topology
that enables external users to reach the LSPs in the LS specified in the
CNI network Mesos uses.

On another note, it might also worth trying to understand whether we can
have a single CNI plugin for all the frameworks that use CNI. We have
another CNI plugin in openvswitch/ovn-kubernetes, and there's quite a bit
of duplication with this one already.
