Node name requirements

Docs say that letters, numbers and underscores are allowed. However if I try and create a node named '4aae6c3824d7_backstabbing_sinoussi_8000' it comes back saying invalid node name.   Thoughts? ...

    try using a-z or A-Z as the first character - i do not believe F5 names can begin with 0-9 or most punctuation

Not sure but it took this name on my lab box backstabbing_sinoussi_8000

 

this sequence 4aae6c3824d7 as a node name by it self will not work but I'm not sure why.
