Error when discovering device

Hello, I am currently testing the F5 MP in my lab environment and I am experiencing an error when trying to discover my first device. The error I am receiving is: Execute device discovery:Failure Failure Message: F5Networks.ManagementPack.Discovery.DiscoveryException: Big 3d update from version 10.2.0.1755.0 to version 10.2.2.1.0.0 was not authorized Not sure what this means and what I need to do to resolve it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Not to worry. I found that little box to check to authorise Big3d Update at discovery.

    Hello David,

     

     

    Thank you for updating us on the resolution of your issue.

     

     

    You can find more information on the discovery process, and big3d update authorization on the Management Pack wiki: http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/MgmtPack/DiscoveringF5NetworksDevices.html

     

    Under the section: "Reviewing changes to big3d"

     

     

    Thank you,
