Stream API

Stream5 fully supports the Stream API (partly supported by Stream4), allowing other protocol normalizers/preprocessors to dynamically configure reassembly behavior as required by the application layer protocol, identify sessions that may be ignored (large data transfers, etc), and update the identifying information about the session (application protocol, direction, etc) that can later be used by rules.
