    * Note: for this change, the other allocators still exist and are the default.
    * It supports two modes:
        * CIDR range allocations done within the cluster that are then propagated out to the cloud provider.
        * Cloud provider managed IPAM that is then reflected into the cluster.

* Fix issue of colliding nodePorts when the cluster has services with externalTrafficPolicy=Local ([#64468](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64468), [@nicksardo](https://github.com/nicksardo))
