support was added.
Prior to Release 2.5 only a single streaming interface could be configured; the streaming interface was
configured as the primary interface. In order to separate management and streaming traffic, the
management interface was configured as a dedicated management interface by using the CDSM’s Device
Activation page. A port channel, as well as a standby group, could be created for the management
interface in order to provide redundancy. In Release 2.5, the streaming interface is introduced for
