Issue with AOM IP Address Configuration on BIG-IP r2600

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble setting the AOM IP address on my BIG-IP r2600 using the front touch panel. Even after inputting the IP and hitting "commit", it reverts back to "0.0.0.0." Has any...

Additionally, I tried setting the AOM IP through the serial console AOM menu (ESC + '(' menu). While it appears to accept and set the IP address on the menu, I still can't communicate using that IP.

    Update on my situation:

    After connecting a LAN cable to the Mgmt port and setting the IP through the serial console via 'ESC+(', I was able to successfully configure the IP. Thank you for your guidance.

    However, I'm still facing issues with SSH login. From online resources, it seems that for newer i-Series models, there isn't a default AOM account, and one has to be created using the aom_setup_user command. But I couldn't find this command in either the root shell or admin shell for the r2600.

    Is there a different approach for the r-series models? Any insights would be highly appreciated.

    Note: I haven't registered the license and deployed the tenant yet.
