will now be tagged with the same additional tags as the ELB; that is, the tags specified by the "service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-additional-resource-tags" annotation. This is useful for identifying orphaned resources. ([#58767](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58767), [@2rs2ts](https://github.com/2rs2ts))

* AWS Network Load Balancers will now be deleted properly, including security group rules. Fixes [#57568](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57568)...

- Support the node label `node.kubernetes.io/exclude-from-external-load-balancers` ([#95542](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95542), [@nilo19](https://github.com/nilo19)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

- Fixed two scheduler metrics...

- [KCCM] drop filtering nodes for the providerID when syncing load balancers, but have changes to the field trigger a re-sync of load balancers. This should ensure that cloud providers which don't specify providerID, can still use the service controller implementation to provision load balancers. ([#117602](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117602), [@alexanderConstantinescu](https://github.com/alexanderConstantinescu))...

* Add sequential allocator for device names. ([#38818](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38818), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))

#### Azure
* Fix failing load balancers in Azure ([#40405](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40405), [@codablock](https://github.com/codablock))

- Fixed a regression introduced in 1.24.0 where Azure load balancers were not kept up to date with the state of cluster nodes. In particular, nodes that are not in the ready state and are not newly created (i.e. not having the `node.cloudprovider.kubernetes.io/uninitialized` taint) now get removed from Azure load balancers.

unauthenticated. The mitigation may be enabled by setting the `UnauthenticatedHTTP2DOSMitigation` feature gate to `true` (it is disabled by default). An API server fronted by an L7 load balancer that already mitigates these http/2 attacks may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver mitigation to avoid disrupting load balancer → kube-apiserver connections if http/2 requests from multiple clients share the same backend connection. An API server on a private network may choose not to enable the kube-apiserver...

  - the node label `alpha.service-controller.kubernetes.io/exclude-balancer` which excludes a node from cloud load balancers (using Service Type=LoadBalancer) is deprecated in favor of `node.kubernetes.io/exclude-balancer`. Support for `alpha.service-controller.kubernetes.io/exclude-balancer` will be removed in v1.18.

- Fix a bug in kube-proxy that caused it to crash when using load balancers with a different IP family ([#87117](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87117), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Network]
