  - NetworkPolicy resources will no longer be served from `extensions/v1beta1` in v1.16. Migrate use to the `networking.k8s.io/v1` API, available since v1.8. Existing persisted data can be retrieved via the `networking.k8s.io/v1` API.

### IPv4/IPv6 Dual-stack Networking graduates to GA

[IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack networking](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-network/563-dual-stack) graduates to GA.
Since 1.21, Kubernetes clusters are enabled to support dual-stack networking by default.
In 1.23, the `IPv6DualStack` feature gate is removed.
The use of dual-stack networking is not mandatory.

  - Ingress resources will no longer be served from `extensions/v1beta1` in v1.20. Migrate use to the `networking.k8s.io/v1beta1` API, available since v1.14. Existing persisted data can be retrieved via the `networking.k8s.io/v1beta1` API.

  
    A previous release built hyperkube using the debian-hyperkube-base@v1.0.0,
    which was updated to address a CVE in the CNI plugins.
    
    A side-effect of using this new image was that the networking packages
    (namely `iptables`) drifted from the versions used in the kube-proxy images.
  
    The following issues were filed on kube-proxy failures when using hyperkube:

cluster has dual-stack enabled, you can create Services which can use IPv4, IPv6, or both, and you can change this setting for existing Services. Details are available in updated [IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack docs](https://docs.k8s.io/concepts/services-networking/dual-stack/), which cover the nuanced array of options.

We expect this implementation to progress from alpha to beta and GA in coming releases, so we’re eager to have you comment about your dual-stack experiences in [#k8s-dual-stac...

will be removed in a future release. This functionality has been migrated to a dedicated v1 API - networking.k8s.io/v1. v1beta1 Network Policies can be upgraded to the v1 API with the [cluster/update-storage-objects.sh script](https://github.com/danwinship/kubernetes/blob/master/cluster/update-storage-objects.sh).
