// TELCODOCS-2488
Support for GNR-D telecom boundary clock with holdover on a GNR-D platform::
+
You can configure a Intel® Granite Rapids-D (GNR-D) platform device as telecom boundary clock (T-BC) with holdover support by using the PTP Operator.
+
In this configuration, one time receiver (TR) port synchronizes to an upstream telecom grandmaster clock, while time transmitter (TT) ports distribute synchronized time to downstream devices. If the upstream timing source degrades, disconnects, or becomes unavailable, the system enters holdover mode and maintains timing by using configured digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) devices.
+
For more information, see TBD[Configuring GNR-D T-BC holdover on a GNR-D platform].

// TELCODOCS-2607
Support for PTP boundary clock without holdover on Intel Granite Rapids-D hardware::
+
You can now configure Precision Time Protocol (PTP) boundary clock (BC) without holdover on Intel Granite Rapids-D (GNR-D) hardware that uses onboard Network Acceleration Complex (NAC) ports and optional Carter Flat expansion network interface cards (NICs).
+
In this deployment, one time receiver (TR) port synchronizes to an upstream timing source while time transmitter (TT) ports distribute synchronized time downstream. GNR-D BC without holdover deployments on Carter Flat hardware require a continuous upstream PTP timing source because monitored holdover is not supported.

// TELCODOCS-2637
Parallel worker node upgrades for large clusters with custom machine config pools::
+
You can accelerate upgrades in large clusters by partitioning worker nodes into custom Machine Config Pools (MCPs) that align with Kubernetes failure domains (KFDs). This approach changes the default sequential node-by-node update process into a parallel partition-based strategy.
+
This strategy is particularly relevant for bare metal and on-premise environments where you cannot add temporary surge capacity during upgrades. By updating all nodes in a single failure domain simultaneously, you can reduce upgrade time while keeping other failure domains available to maintain High Availability (HA) for workloads.
+
For more information, see TBD[Configuring custom machine config pools for parallel upgrades].

Granite Rapids-D is GNR-D.
To keep it DRY could we go with this format?
