Add recommendation for installing large clusters
The default cluster network cidr will just allow us to get to 500 nodes, it needs to be set accordingly in the install-config.yaml before installing the cluster in case we want to get to larger node counts.

When installing large clusters or scaling the cluster to larger node counts,
9+
set the cluster network `cidr` accordingly in your `install-config.yaml`
10+
file before you install the cluster:
11+
12+
----
13+
networking:
14+
clusterNetwork:
15+
- cidr: 10.128.0.0/14
16+
hostPrefix: 23
17+
machineCIDR: 10.0.0.0/16
18+
networkType: OpenShiftSDN
19+
serviceNetwork:
20+
- 172.30.0.0/16
21+
----
22+
23+
The default clusterNetwork cidr 10.128.0.0/14 cannot be used if the cluster size is more
24+
than 500 nodes. It must be set to 10.128.0.0/12 or 10.128.0.0/10 to get to larger node
25+
counts beyond 500 nodes.
