- Added new feature gate `ServiceNodePortStaticSubrange`, to enable the new strategy in the `NodePort` Service port allocators, so the node port range is subdivided and dynamic allocated `NodePort` port for Services are allocated preferentially from the upper range. ([#114418](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114418), [@xuzhenglun](https://github.com/xuzhenglun))

* When using IP aliases, use a secondary range rather than subnetwork to reserve cluster IPs. ([#51690](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51690), [@bowei](https://github.com/bowei))
* IPAM controller unifies handling of node pod CIDR range allocation. ([#51374](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51374), [@bowei](https://github.com/bowei))

- SafeSysctlWhitelist: add net.ipv4.ping_group_range ([#85463](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85463), [@AkihiroSuda](https://github.com/AkihiroSuda)) [SIG Auth]

* Avoid panic when failing to allocate a Cloud CIDR (aka GCE Alias IP Range).  ([#58186](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58186), [@negz](https://github.com/negz))

- Upgrade Stackdriver Logging Agent addon image to 0.6-1.6.0-1 to use Fluentd v1.2. This provides nanoseconds timestamp...

### Avoiding Collisions in IP allocation to Services

Kubernetes 1.24 introduced a new opt-in feature that allows you to
[soft-reserve a range for static IP address assignments](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#service-ip-static-sub-range)
to Services.
With the manual enablement of this feature, the cluster will prefer automatic assignment from

### Promoted endPort in Network Policy to Stable

Promoted `endPort` in [Network Policy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/#targeting-a-range-of-ports) to GA. Network Policy providers that support `endPort` field now can use it to specify a range of ports to apply a Network Policy. Previously, each Network Policy could only target a single port.

- Fixed a bug where executing a kubectl command with a jsonpath output expression that has a nested range would ignore expressions following the nested range. ([#88464](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88464), [@brianpursley](https://github.com/brianpursley)) [SIG API Machinery]

- Fix azure file migration panic ([#94853](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94853), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Fix bug in JSON path parser where an error occurs when a range is empty ([#95933](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95933), [@brianpursley](https://github.com/brianpursley)) [SIG API Machinery]
