Hi community,I plan to buy 2 new R4600 to replace the current 4000s(c113) ASM licensed. F5 have changed they lincesning model and I am a bit confiused about what exactly I need to purchase. On the new device I need the following features:Basic LTM (VS with 2,3 backend servers)iRulesL7 attack protectionIPS Can you pelase suggest what license modules cover the above items? I can not go for Best bundle becouse of too high price.Thanks!

the lowest end r2600 has more traffic capacity than 4000s.and with only 3 backend servers, i doubt that you reach 4000s max capacity.if you dont need full ltm features, you can buy awf feature set instead.you can see the feature comparison in this link:https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K14231234
