• the first one is a whitelist has been implemented to prevent the policy to quarantine specifics IPs #1982
• The second one is a new layer: the preferred list. #1990

This preferred list is interesting for nodes to team up in the network in order to establish inter-connections faster. For example this is useful for operators maintaining multiple nodes (like IOHK's). see documentation for configuration options.
