F5 platform EoSD and Software EoSD is different. Which one need to use?
The BIG-IP 2000 platform is End of Software Development, and cannot be upgraded in a supported manner beyond version 15.1.2

Development of 15.x will continue (currently 15.1.3) but these ongoing BIG-IP releases will not be tested or supported on the BIG-IP 2000 platform.
ASM Signature Updates are tied to the release version (i.e 15.1), and will continue to be developed and released until the software EoSD date.
Note that ASM Signature Updates require a Service Check Date that is less than 18 months before the Update date - you will need to regularly re-activate the license to allow ASM Signature Updates to be performed.
