F5 GTM v10.2.4 storing WIPs with small case in wideip.conf.
The DNS protocol is case insensitive, so multiple wideips with the same name but different case are not allowed.
Having said that, GTM 10.2.4 appears to fail to enforce this behaviour, and incorrectly allows you to create multiple objects. This is a bug, and is fixed in later versions (I haven't tested to see exactly which version the fix appeared in, but it is certainly fixed in 11.5.1)
With regard to the duplicate entries showing in the GUI, this will be because the internal "running" configuration stored in /var/db/mcpd.bin will be storing all three entries. If you follow SOL13030 and reset your mcpd cache, the config will be read from wideip.conf, and the duplicates will disappear.
Note that 10.2.4 is no longer under active development (see SOL5903). You are encouraged to upgrade to a version that has active software support.
