 ## Validating webhooks
 Validating webhooks are an implementation of a [Kubernetes validating webhook](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/admission-controllers/#validatingadmissionwebhook). A validating webhook allows developers to test whether values supplied by users are valid. e.g. [the Cluster webhook] ensures the Infrastructure reference supplied at the Cluster's `.spec.infrastructureRef` is in the same namespace as the Cluster itself and rejects the object creation or update if not.

+<h1> ClusterClass and managed topology support in validating webhooks </h1>
+
+Validating webhooks implemented for a `InfrastructureMachineTemplate` or `BootstrapConfigTemplate` resource
+are required to not block due to immutability checks when the controller for managed
+topology and ClusterClass does [Server Side Apply] dry-run requests.

+See [the DockerMachineTemplate webhook] as a reference for a compatible implementation.

 ## Defaulting webhooks
 Defaulting webhooks are an implementation of a [Kubernetes mutating webhook](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/admission-controllers/#mutatingadmissionwebhook). A defaulting webhook allows developers to set default values for a type before they are placed in the Kubernetes data store. e.g. [the Cluster webhook] will set the Infrastructure reference namespace to equal the Cluster namespace if `.spec.infrastructureRef.namespace` is empty.
