Tell us about your request I have deployed solo-io_istio-distro via EKS addon. I want to collector Istio tracing data by ADOT. But I am not able to configure the zipkin address in istio-system/istio configmap by EKS addon advance configuration. Since this parameter is not available in the schema.

Below is the config item to be updated in istio-system/istio configmap.

data.defaultConfig.tracing.zipkin.address

apiVersion: v1
data:
  mesh: |-
    defaultConfig:
      discoveryAddress: istiod.istio-system.svc:15012
      proxyMetadata:
        ISTIO_META_ENABLE_HBONE: "true"
      tracing:
        zipkin:
          address: zipkin-collector.adot-collector:9411

Which service(s) is this request for? EKS

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard? Be able to configure zipkin address in EKS addon advance configuration. Otherwise I have to update the configmap directly. This can be overwritten if I upgrade my addon next time.

Are you currently working around this issue? I updated the istio-system/istio configmap inside the Kubernetes cluster directly.
