https://www.suse.com/suse-rancher/support-matrix/all-supported-versions/rancher-v2-6-3/ Looks like v1.21.7 is the highest on the list under the 1.21 branch

I generally always upgrade to the latest stable version, we've been using 2.6.5 and it's treated us well. It also has 1.21.x as it's supported version https://www.suse.com/assets/EN-2.6.5SupportMatrix-300422-0116-26.pdf
We've also noticed 2.6.5 has some nice bug fixes for us (like filtering being more reliable) and neat features such as cluster badges

I'm not sure there's a button to click, but should be possible to use the kubectl shell for it. https://rancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.6/en/installation/install-rancher-on-k8s/upgrades/
