- NetworkPolicy resources will no longer be served from `extensions/v1beta1` in v1.16. Migrate use to the `networking.k8s.io/v1` API, available since v1.8. Existing persisted data can be retrieved via the `networking.k8s.io/v1` API.

### Feature

- Kubelet TCP and HTTP probes are more effective using networking resources: conntrack entries, sockets, ... 

    present in `/etc/cni/net.d` or a given custom CNI configuration path.
    [This change](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43474) ensures
    kubelet does not start pods that require networking before
    [networking is ready](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/43014).
    This change may require changes to clients that gate pod creation and/or

will be removed in a future release. This functionality has been migrated to a dedicated v1 API - networking.k8s.io/v1. v1beta1 Network Policies can be upgraded to the v1 API with the [cluster/update-storage-objects.sh script](https://github.com/danwinship/kubernetes/blob/master/cluster/update-storage-objects.sh). Documentation can be found [here](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/). ([#56425](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/56425), [@cmluciano]...

cluster has dual-stack enabled, you can create Services which can use IPv4, IPv6, or both, and you can change this setting for existing Services. Details are available in updated [IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack docs](https://docs.k8s.io/concepts/services-networking/dual-stack/), which cover the nuanced array of options.

We expect this implementation to progress from alpha to beta and GA in coming releases, so we’re eager to have you comment about your dual-stack experiences in [#k8s-dual-stac...

  - Ingress resources will no longer be served from `extensions/v1beta1` in v1.20. Migrate use to the `networking.k8s.io/v1beta1` API, available since v1.14. Existing persisted data can be retrieved via the `networking.k8s.io/v1beta1` API.

  2. If you were previously overriding the kube-proxy configuration for performance reasons, this may no longer be necessary. See https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/networking/virtual-ips/#optimizing-iptables-mode-performance. ([#115138](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115138), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

- Updated the feature MultiCIDRServiceAllocator to beta (disabled by default). Users need to enable the feature gate and the networking v1beta1 group to be able to use this new feature, that allows to dynamically reconfigure Service CIDR ranges. ([#125021](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125021), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, CLI, Etcd,...

  
    A previous release built hyperkube using the debian-hyperkube-base@v1.0.0,
    which was updated to address a CVE in the CNI plugins.
    
    A side-effect of using this new image was that the networking packages
    (namely `iptables`) drifted from the versions used in the kube-proxy images.
  
    The following issues were filed on kube-proxy failures when using hyperkube:

- kubeadm now works better when not connected to the Internet. In addition,  common kubeadm commands will now work without an available networking interface. ([#67397](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67397), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))
