NimbostratusF5 APM Client OS Windows 10 Support
I know it's only a Tech Preview available for the most people but does anyone have a fix to allow Windows 10 Client OS detection in APM apart from having a generic fall back rule for any undetected OS?

A good idea would be to open a ticket and ask support about the compatibility, and ask to have your case attached to any BZ ID that they may have for that support.
That said, you may be able to inspect the User-Agent header passed along by the client, and make a decision there.

I would just modify the user-agent using the spartan browser and be done with it :)

You could review Microsoft's User agent string changes for windows 10 : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/hh869301%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
shakeelahmadch_I got it working today finally.
If you have a working Win7 or Win 8 copy - go to your following path:
C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository
and you'll find a folder with appropriate drives named something like : "covpn2~1.inf_amd64_f8386c498fa072a0"
Copy this folder across to Win 10, and use "Have my disk" function in updating driver (under Device manager) in Windows 10 to install this driver. Ignore all warning and that's it. Working smoothly so far !!!
Walther_Grimes_This did not work for me. I see the F5 Networks VPN driver in the Device Manager, but it has a yellow triangle on it. Trying to connect to the VPN gives me: Status: Network Access Connection Device was not found.
john_marta_1064This worked for me but DNS resolution doesnt work (i.e I can ping things based on IP but if i try hostname it doesn't resolve).- shakeelahmadch_You are right about DNS issue - I have the same issue but better than nothing until we have an official fix from F5. I haven't played around DNS yet though - might be a workaround it.

Thx for you reply, but for me it is not clear, what does Log in to the Configuration utility mean, what the Configuration utility?
