***=Ping and Traceroute do not have explicit servers. Ping and Traceroute responses are sent by the host stack.

For applications that have servers, oobm/data/both options have been added to listen mode. There is now a listen keyword in the CLI commands to allow selection of those options. Default value is both for all servers.
