-## <a name="kube-1.6-upgrade"></a> Upgrading Kubernetes to version 1.6
-
-In version 1.6, Kubernetes has increased security, so we need to
-create a special service account to run Weave Net. This is done in
-the file `weave-daemonset-k8s-1.6.yaml` attached to the [Weave Net
-release](https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/releases/latest).

-Also, the
-[toleration](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/taint-toleration-dedicated.md)
-required to let Weave Net run on master nodes has moved from an
-annotation to a field on the DaemonSet spec object.
-
-If you have edited the Weave Net DaemonSet from a previous release,
-you will need to re-make your changes against the new version.

+The DaemonSet definition specifies [Rolling
+Updates](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-daemon/update-daemon-set/),
 so when you apply a new version Kubernetes will automatically restart
 the Weave Net pods one by one.
 
-Kubernetes v1.5 and below does not support rolling upgrades of daemon sets,
-and so you will need to perform the procedure manually:
-
-* Apply the updated addon manifest `kubectl apply -f "https://cloud.weave.works/k8s/net?k8s-version=$(kubectl version | base64 | tr -d '\n')"`
-* Kill each Weave Net pod with `kubectl delete` and then wait for it to reboot before moving on to the next pod.
-
-**Note:** In versions prior to Weave Net 2.0, deleting all Weave Net pods at the same time
-  will result in them losing track of IP address range ownership, possibly leading to
-  duplicate IP addresses if you then start a new copy of Weave Net.
