Hi Jie,

 

11.6.0 is marked as experimental and will remain so through all 11.6.x versions. The HTTP2 profile on 11.6.0 is definitely buggy - but it is clearly labelled as experimental as you've observed.

 

The problems I observed in 11.6.0 were typically resolved in 12.0.0. If you want to run HTTP/2 in production, use 12.0.0 (currently at hotfix 1).

 

The implementation should follow the RFC. However, one would still expect to see bugs, since draft/RFC difference are still being ironed out apparently! For example: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/17000/000/sol17023
