|
|
plugins from a specific directory with the new `connector_plugindir`
|
|
parameter. Read the [Configuration Guide](../Getting-Started/Configuration-Guide.md)
|
|
for more details about this new parameter.

|
|
|
## New Features
|
|
|
|
### IPv6 Support
|
|
|
|
MaxScale now supports IPv6 connections on both the client and backend side as
|
|
well as being able to listen on IPv6 addresses.
|
|
|
|
### ReadWriteSplit Connection Keepalive
|
|
|
|
The _readwritesplit_ module now implements a `connection_keepalive`
