A customer with a new physical in-path installation decides to turn on the optimization service during lunch time
on a working day. This is done so that he can see if the users perceive any performance improvement. When
starting the optimization service, he does not enable the in-path kickoff option. Assuming there were several
already active connections when he starts the optimization service, how will the Steelhead appliances handle
these existing connections?

B.
The Steelhead appliance will pass-through all pre-existing connections, leaving them un-optimized

C.
The Steelhead appliance will reset all pre-existing connections, thus automatically changing their
optimization status from un-optimized to optimized

D.
The Steelhead appliance will list the connections as “pre-existing” on the Current Connections page
