•Important: This release supports dynamic upgrades of detection logic for the following P2P protocols: Bittorrent, DirectConnect, eDonkey, Gnutella, Skype, and Yahoo.
Important: Dynamic signature updates may not work in all situations, and software updates may be required to update the detection logic in use on a system.
If a P2P signature file is already available for a software build, the system loads the file from the default location, which is “/usr/lib/p2p-rules.xml”.Important: In case of session recovery, when subscriber call is recovered, it will always use the active version of the P2P signature file available in the memory.
Important: In order for session recovery to work there should be at least four packet processing cards (PSCs/PSC2s), one standby and three active. Per active CPU with active SessMgrs, there is one standby SessMgr, and on the standby CPU, the same number of standby SessMgrs as the active SessMgrs in the active CPU.
