Ways to set up a simple host to act as a bastion for OCP and avoid using the master nodes

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

Using one of the master nodes of Openshift Container Plataform (OCP) to administer cluster by login with a normal system:authenticated users may create issues like corruption of the kubeconfig file which in turn can make some playbooks fail, since ansible-playbook accesses the masters to run its tasks. Due to this fact also using one of the masters to run the ansible-playbooks is not recommended.
