+
+## vJunos-switch
+
+Thanks to contributions from @akielaries done in #1553 and accompanying vrnetlab PR containerlab gets support for [Juniper vJunos-switch](../manual/kinds/vr-vjunosswitch.md). This is a new VM-based virtual product from Juniper that has been integrated in containerlab by juniper folks, kudos to them!
+
+## Find topology file in a directory
+
+For quite a while containerlab had two ways of finding which topology file to use when deploying/destroing/inspecting a lab:
+
+1. when users provide a path to a topology file via `-t` flag, containerlab will use that file
+2. when users do not provide a path to a topology file (no `-t` flag present), containerlab would search for a file named `*.clab.yml` in the current directory and use it.
+
+Now @steiler enhanced this functionality by making sure that if a user provides a path with `-t` flag that points to a directory, then we will apply topology file finding logic in this directory, instead of bailing out with an error.
+
+## suppress-startup-config
+
+@bewing added a new node parameter called [`suppress-config`](../manual/nodes.md#suppress-startup-config) to give users ability to suppress startup config generation for a given node or a set of nodes. This is particularly useful in scenarios when you want to test ZTP and thus make sure containerlab doesn't add anything on its own accord.
+
+## Miscellaneous
+
+* #1571 - ansible proxy variable is added to containerlab produced ansible inventory
+* #1592 - ca cert and node certs now have a default country code set to US
+* #1583 - default link MTU is now fixed to be 9500 again
