v0.10.0
This release of flannel contains many new features and improvements. Highlights include
- A new IPIP backend.
- A configuration for using Wireguard with the extensions backend.
- Some build changes. All images are now based on Alpine Linux.
- Initial groundwork for Windows support.
- Some changes to how subnets are configured. Flannel now performs additional checks on the configuration options that users supply.
- Changes to the kubernetes manifests
- The CNI configuration is now specified as a
.conflistwhich allows multiple plugins to be chained. If you are upgrading flannel by just applying the new manifest, then kubernetes will continue to use the old.confinstead of the new.conflistuntil you manually delete the.conffile. See discussion in #855 (comment) for more details. - The CNI configuration now includes the portmap plugin to provide hostPort functionality. You must ensure that the plugin is installed on your host (it will be if you have at least version 0.6.0 of the CNI plugins). This kubernetes manifest in this repo does not install any CNI binaries so you must install another way.
- The CNI configuration is now specified as a
- A number of other bug fixes and improvements. See below for the full list.

v0.9.0
This release of flannel brings some significant improvements to the vxlan backend.
- No longer listen for netlink messages. This improves flannel performance at high scale (especially on heavily loaded systems) and minimizes the possibility for dropped traffic when the flannel deamon is stopped (e.g. during upgrades).
- Fully compatible with previous versions of flannel to allow for easy upgrade
- Adds support for new "direct routing" mode where packets are only VXLAN encapsulated if there isn't a directly connected route to the destination host.
It also adds a retry mechanism to the --ip-masq feature to ensure that iptables rules are correct.
There are a number of other important bug fixes and improvements. See the complete list below.

v0.7.1
This is primarily a bug fix release which has the following key fixes and improvements.
Kube Subnet Manager
This release introduces a new experimental feature. The Kubernetes API server can now be used as a datastore instead of etcd. This makes deployment easier as flannel no longer directly relies on the presence of an etcd server. To use it, pass the -kube-subnet-mgr option to the flannel daemon.
This release also contains a large number of merged PRs (thanks everyone for all your contributions, please keep them coming) and some other build, documentation and other minor improvements.
