Can you explain the recent change in how BrowserStack handles local binary and IP whitelisting connections? When did this change take effect?

Previously, if you had both a local binary running and IP whitelisting configured, the local binary would automatically take priority. As of 29th March 2024, we've updated this behavior. Now, IP whitelisting takes precedence by default.

This change aims to align better with typical customer preferences and streamline the connection process. To prioritize your local connection, explicitly set the Local parameter to true in your configuration.
