 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Fixed
+- Retry on 403 Forbidden and 401 Unauthorized in `ServicesWatcher` at startup with exponential backoff. Fixes #1464.
+- Reintroduce BGP config via node annotations. Fixes #1488.
+- Fail fast in runtime `manager` and `service` paths when legacy `vip_address` is used without `vip_subnet` in control-plane ARP, BGP, or Routing Table mode.
+- Cancel the mode context on init or configuration failure before waiting on goroutines during shutdown.
+

 ### Added
+- Configurable control-plane health check for BGP mode without leader election
+  - Polls a configurable HTTP(S) endpoint (e.g. `https://localhost:6443/livez`) to verify the exposed service is healthy (usually the local kube-apiserver)
+  - Withdraws the BGP route after a configurable number of consecutive failures, removing the unhealthy node from the ECMP set
+  - Re-announces the route automatically once the endpoint recovers
+  - Gracefully withdraws the route on shutdown (SIGTERM)
+  - Supports custom CA certificates for TLS verification
+  - Configuration via environment variables or CLI flags:
+    - `control_plane_health_check_address` / `--controlPlaneHealthCheckAddress`: URL to poll
+    - `control_plane_health_check_period_seconds` / `--controlPlaneHealthCheckPeriodSeconds`: interval between checks (default: 5)
+    - `control_plane_health_check_timeout_seconds` / `--controlPlaneHealthCheckTimeoutSeconds`: per-request timeout (default: 3)
+    - `control_plane_health_check_failure_threshold` / `--controlPlaneHealthCheckFailureThreshold`: consecutive failures before withdrawal (default: 3)
+    - `control_plane_health_check_ca_path` / `--controlPlaneHealthCheckCAPath`: CA cert for HTTPS verification

 ### Changed
 - Updated signal handlers in manager_arp.go, manager_bgp.go, manager_wireguard.go, and manager_table.go to use switch statement pattern for handling multiple signals (SIGUSR1, SIGINT, SIGTERM)

 ## Troubleshooting and Feedback
 
+### SELinux and IPVS kernel modules
+
+When using IPVS load balancing on nodes with SELinux enforcing, kube-vip may be
+blocked from requesting kernel modules from inside the container. Symptoms can
+include the kube-vip pod entering `Error` or `CrashLoopBackOff`, logs that show
+`ensure IPVS kernel modules are loaded`, or audit denials for `module_request`
+from `container_t`.
+
+Load the required IPVS modules on every node that can run kube-vip before
+deploying it:
+
+```shell
+sudo modprobe ip_vs
+sudo modprobe ip_vs_rr
+```
+
+To persist this across reboots, add the modules to a file such as
+`/etc/modules-load.d/kube-vip-ipvs.conf`:
+
+```text
+ip_vs
+ip_vs_rr
+```
+
+Preloading only the required modules is preferred to enabling the SELinux
+`domain_kernel_load_modules` boolean for containers.
+
 Please raise issues on the GitHub repository and as mentioned check the documentation at [https://kube-vip.io](https://kube-vip.io/).

 ## Contributing
 
 Thanks for taking the time to join our community and start contributing! We welcome pull requests. Feel free to dig through the [issues](https://github.com/kube-vip/kube-vip/issues) and jump in.
 
 :warning: This project has issue compiling on MacOS, please compile it on linux distribution
 
+Additionally it is now relatively easy and quick to develop with [skaffold](https://skaffold.dev/), and the `skaffold.yaml` exists within the root folder of the gir repository.
+
+### Set up a kind development environment
+
+1. `kind create cluster --config ./testing/kind.yaml`
+2. `kubectl apply -f https://kube-vip.io/manifests/rbac.yaml`
+3. Create a load balancer range `configMap` from the kind cluster
+4. Apply the CCM manifest
+5. Start skaffold with `skaffold dev`
+6. Start developing and see changes applied in real-time.
