NimbostratusF5 LTM Stable Release
Hi, I am trying to inquire what is the current f5 stable release at the moment? I am looking on their site and I do not see were they recommend as a stable release like Cisco has a Safe Harbor recommended.

11.5.3 Hotfix 2 is the latest "Stability" release. Starting in v12.x+ X.1 versions will be considered the "Stability" relases. So v12.0 is out, but not considered "Stability" until 12.1.
- Brad_Parker_139starting in v12 as well there will no longer be minor versions higher than .1. Everything will be X.0 or X.1. https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/5000/900/sol5903.html

Hello,
An F5 representative advised me 11.5.3HF2 : * 11.5.3 because its end of software development date is 8 april 2019 and its end of technical support date is 8 april 2020 : it has the farthest support date. (more info sol5903) * HF2 : because it's the latest hotfix available today
Hope it'll help,
regards
vegetaxThank you for info and link much appreciated.

i agree, if i can guide a client i will tell them to go for 11.5.3 unless they require something from 11.6 or 12.0.
