AWS drs: Bandwidth test guidance updated to TLS on TCP 1500
Summary
Replaces the old SSL connectivity/bandwidth test AMI reference with instructions to benchmark bandwidth over TLS on TCP port 1500, linking to the new network bandwidth test page.
Security assessment
The change clarifies that the bandwidth test uses TLS on a specific port, reinforcing encrypted transport for replication testing, but it documents no new security control or vulnerability fix.
Evidence
+ 1. **Benchmark network bandwidth:** Test the bandwidth between your source environment and the staging area subnet over TLS on TCP port 1500. For instructions on running this test, see [Running a network bandwidth test to an EC2 endpoint](./network-bandwidth-test.html).
