BIG-IQ: how to license a LTM VE device

Hi,   I've set up a License Pool (F5-BIG-VEP1-25M25V13) on my BIG-IQ 4.6 (Centralized Management), to provide LTM licensing to my new machines, which I'm deploying on vCloud.   So, what I'm do...

The main log file for BIG-IQ is /var/log/restjavad.0.log. There should be more information on the failure there.

    Thank you Kyle. I do see much more information there. I'm think that both LTM and BIG-IQ must have Internet access to activate the license (right now, they don't have access), so I'm allowing them to reach Internet and see what happens. I'll let you know.

    That should not be the case. One of the purposes of license pools is to be able to give licenses to devices that do not have internet capabilities.

    You're right. Just tried to license with BIG-IQ and LTM reaching Internet. Same issue :(
