#### kubectl:

- The iptables mode of kube-proxy now tracks accepted packets that are destined for node-ports on localhost by introducing `kubeproxy_iptables_localhost_nodeports_accepted_packets_total` metric.

- Kubeadm: during kubelet health checks, respect the healthz address:port configured in the KubeletConfiguration instead of hardcoding localhost:10248. ([#125286](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125286), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
