In X8.8, we have improved that deployment by creating an independent broker to perform the task of filtering and
redirecting the messaging and presence traffic coming from the Microsoft infrastructure. This change has the

There is a new "Multistream mode" on all zone types that can potentially handle media. The mode is enabled by
