* Federation alpha features do not have feature gates defined and
are hence enabled by default. This will be fixed in a future release.

* Federation control plane can be upgraded by updating the image

- Add --permit-address-sharing flag to `kube-apiserver` to listen with `SO_REUSEADDR`. While allowing to listen on wildcard IPs like 0.0.0.0 and specific IPs in parallel, it avoids waiting for the kernel to release socket in `TIME_WAIT` state, and hence, considerably reducing `kube-apiserver` restart times under certain conditions.

## Known Issues

  if they're rejected by PreEnqueue plugins that could change its result by a change in resources apart from Pods.
  
  DRA plugin is the only plugin that meets the criteria of the bug in in-tree, 
  and hence if you have `DynamicResourceAllocation` feature flag enabled, 

- The pod phase lifecycle guarantees that terminal Pods, those whose states are `Unready` or `Succeeded`, can not regress and will have all container stopped. Hence, terminal Pods will never be reachable and should not publish their IP addresses on the `Endpoints` or `EndpointSlices`, independently of the Service `TolerateUnready` option.
