F5 support said that the Trial Version runs on different code than the production version of LTM VE, and that the Trial Version has all sorts of bugs. It looks like the UNINITIALIZED interface bug exists in both the trial version and production version though. F5 said that they will address the bug at some point in the future.

 

 

The release notes for 10.2.1 show that the uninitialized interface issue is a known issue:

"Yes, the 10.2.1 will also show the interfaces as uninitialized, as well. But, they will work. The Dev team will fix the problem in a future release. "
