WAAS CIFS Optimisation

AFAIK, WAAS is not able to optimise CIFS when SMB signing or digital
signatures are enabled (default!). Is it correct?

Do i need to disable default Microsoft SMB signature to get optimal CIFS
optimisation?

Thanks for any feedback or recommandation

IIRC Yes. Also ensure you're on one of the newer versions, older ones (<
4.1.7 maybe ?) have some known issues with Windows sharing.
