    Not officially supported... But edit bigip.conf and do a 'b load'

     

     

    WARNING! This can render your config unloadable (And your BigIP INOPERATIVE) if you mess it up :)

    You can run 'b verify load' to test the change before attempting to load it with a 'b load'.

    Thanks to both of you. Will 'b load' cause other virtual servers to restart as well?
