AWS drs documentation change

Service: drs · 2026-05-04 · Documentation low

File: drs/latest/userguide/failback-performing.md

Summary

Updated image captions for Failback Client documentation to provide more specific details about terminal outputs, instance IDs, volume mappings, and connection parameters.

Security assessment

Changes clarify security requirements like session token authentication and TCP port 1500 configuration, but do not address a specific vulnerability. The added specificity improves security documentation by highlighting authentication parameters and network requirements.
