Due to Azure public IPPrefix size limitation, the valid value range is [28, 31] (/31 = 2 nodes/IPs, /30 = 4 nodes/IPs, /29 = 8 nodes/IPs, /28 = 16 nodes/IPs). The default value is 31. int

This field can be modified after node pool is created, but nodes will not be recreated with new taints until another operation that requires recreation (e.g. node image upgrade) happens. These taints allow for required configuration to run before the node is ready to accept workloads, for example 'key1=value1:NoSchedule' that then can be removed with kubectl taint nodes node1 key1=value1:NoSchedule- string[]
