Support for New IAP Devices
Instant 6.5.0.0-4.3.0.0 release introduces support for the following new IAP devices. These new devices do not
interoperate with Instant versions lower than Instant 6.5.0.0-4.3.0.0. If these IAPs are placed into a cluster
running older Instant versions prior to Instant 6.5.0.0-4.3.0.0, the devices will reboot with the
