As an alpha feature, Endpoint Slices are not enabled by default in Kubernetes.
Enabling Endpoint Slices requires as many as 3 changes to Kubernetes cluster
configuration.

To enable the Discovery API group that includes Endpoint Slices, use the runtime
config flag (`--runtime-config=discovery.k8s.io/v1alpha1=true`).

The logic responsible for watching services, pods, and nodes and creating or
updating associated Endpoint Slices lives within the EndpointSlice controller.
This is disabled by default but can be enabled with the controllers flag on
kube-controller-manager (`--controllers=endpointslice`).

For Kubernetes components like kube-proxy to actually start using Endpoint
