how to find out where an old IP Adress is used
Hello,
a few months ago we changed the vlan for a management-IP Adress, now i observed on the firewall the F5 tries to connect to the old management IP, but I can't find the IP in Config.
On ihealth I searched the Log for the old IP and I found a lot of entries like
makeRestCall (external) {"protocol":"https:","slashes":true,"auth":null,"host":"192.168.2.70:443","port":"443","hostname":"192.168.2.70","hash":null,"search":null,"query":null,"pathname":"/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/9E4OvTih1_P4Vau7wFUGVg","path":"/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/9E4OvTih1_P4Vau7wFUGVg","href":"https://192.168.2.70:443/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/9E4OvTih1_P4Vau7wFUGVg"}
where 192.168.2.70 is the old MGMT IP.
other Logs:
POL-xxx (ASM-Policy) connect ECONNREFUSED 192.168.2.70:443
could you give me a hint, where to look for in Configuration?
Reason:
trying to find out, why sometimes there's a failover to secondary machine and losing connection to pool-members
thank you

I could find the object only in Log-File /var/log/restnoded
found this Article: https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K78734243
after "clear-rest-storage" the connection was not opened anymore.
maybe any old, not recognised Rest-API configuration?
kgaigl Typically that command is used when upgrading HA pairs of BIG-IQs but that's good that it resolved your issue. This might be worth bringing to the attention of F5 to see if they have a bug related to this specifically.
Have you done a cd into the /config directory and performed a grep on all files? Also consider creating a QKView, loading into F5 iHealth, and performing a search for the IP address.

I created already a qkview and in Ihealth I found the Log-Entry.
But I did not found the IP Adress in Config Explorer
