Please Team, when will firmware 13.1.0 for Big-IP LTM upgrade be released by F5? I seriously need it to upgrade my Big -IP LTM from 12.0.0.

F5 site does not show any release dates for this version. You can check from the website. But why are you so eager to upgrade the iOS. Is there any issue that you are facing, which you hope will be sorted after upgrade to this version ?
The attached is the ALERT I received from my Big-IP LTM devices, and this has necessitated my request for this firmware. Please advice accordingly.

I had a call with our direct support and F5 for the same problem. They have a strange maintenance date, you can follow Amy's suggestion or wait the new one version. I'm using different version, in 3 Big-IP different cluster: 11.6.1 - 12.1.0 and 13.0.0.
It depend also which module and license you are using. I updated some devices to new version to download and use last signature WAF.
Thanks jmusci, I prefer the 13.1.0 to 13.0.0 version because the 13.1.0 takes like 4 years before another firmware upgrade is requested for while the 13.0.0 will only last for just one year. I believe that by now the F% support should have been more specific about when 13.1.0 firmware version will be released, we shall see.

It has been quite some time since a 13.0 hotfix was released. There are multiple bugs in 13.0 that would be nice to see fixed in 13.1

Use v12.1.2, it's stable.

We upgrade 13.x beta version for one of viprion device and we faced a lot of issues. Like Guest went down completely after an upgrade. We reverted beta version to 12.1.x as of now.
FYI This is out today, 13.1.0.1 is recommended and its a FULL upgrade (its an ISO not a 13.1 + HF).

What is the difference between 13.1 and 13.1.0.1? I noticed they are both on the download. 13.1.0.1 is just a fixed version they released after?

Looks like some fixes... not sure why it just wasn't included in the first release?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I look forward to seeing the documentation on 13.1 come online.
