BIG-IP LTM 11.3.0 VE edition <<getting error after assigned management ip and lost setting reboot>></getting>

!!!This BIG-IP system has encountered a configuration problem that may prevent the Configuration utility from functioning properly!!!

 

Hi All,

 

I am testing BIG-IP 11.3 VE on ESXi 6 with trial license (90days). I've received above message and the management ip setting are lost whenever BIG-IP reboot. Honestly this is fist time I'm playing with F5 network. I am just newbie and kindly advice me how to fix this issue.

 

thanks & regards,

    Once you've assigned a MGMT IP -

     

    SSH onto the Backend -

     

    save sys config

     

    That should fix your issue with the MGMT IP being lost.

     

    If you re-license the device, without saving config you will likely lose the MGMT IP as you've mentioned.
