The system might choose to create a new outgoing connection when there is an available exiting connection that can be used.
Messages should be delivered correctly as the metadata is lost after routing. There might be an impact if routing is retried and the ignore-peer-port setting is lost. This might cause a new connection to be created when an available existing connection exists.
When a message is forwarded to another TMM for delivery, an internal state might be lost.
None.
The system now ensures that the ignore-peer-port flag is preserved when forwarding a message to a connection on another TMM.
