Deprecated Functionality Deprecated Functionality
------------------------ ------------------------
- The ``Cluster::Node$interface`` field has been deprecated. It's essentially
unneeded, unused and not a reliable way to gather the actual interface used
by a worker. In Zeekctl deployments the field will be populated until its
removal. The ``packet_source()`` bif should be used on worker processes to
gather information about the interface.
- The ``policy/misc/load-balancing`` script has been deprecated in favor of
AF_PACKET PF_RING, Netmap or other NIC specific load balancing approaches.
- Time machine related enums, options and fields have been marked for removal.
- The ``check_for_unused_event_handlers`` options the related ``UsedHandlers()``,
``UnusedHandlers()`` and their related ``SetUsed()`` and ``Used()`` methods
have been marked for removal. The feature of finding unused event handlers is
provided by default via the ``UsageAnalyzer`` component.
