How are you setting the management port IP address? If you set it via the command line you should either use config or b mgmt commands. You can get a list of the command options by running b mgmt help. If you make the change using b mgmt, you should use 'b base save' to write the changes from memory to the bigip_base.conf file.

 

 

Changes made via the GUI are made to the running config in memory and the config file(s).
