### SIG-scheduling

- Fixed two scheduler metrics...

* Add a label which prevents a node from being added to a cloud load balancer ([#53146](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53146), [@brendandburns](https://github.com/brendandburns))

- [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))...

- 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]

*   Azure Load Balancer Auto Mode: Services can be annotated to allow auto selection of available load balancers and to provide specific availability sets that host the load balancers (for example, `service.beta.kubernetes.io/azure-load-balancer-mode=auto|as1,as2...`)

### **CLI**

#### **Kubectl**

* Fix load balancer issues when running zero nodes in Azure vmss. ([#68775](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68775), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
* Fix potential panic when getting azure load balancer status ([#68609](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68609), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

- Setting loadBalancerClass in load balancer type of service is available with this PR. 

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...

### SIG Azure

* The Azure cloud provider now supports standard SKU load balancer and public IP.
`excludeMasterFromStandardLB` defaults to true, which means master nodes are excluded from the standard load balancer. Also note that because all nodes (except master) are added as loadbalancer backends, the standard load balancer doesn't work with the `service.beta.kubernetes.io/azure-load-balancer-mode` annotation.
