Thanks Aaron for your reply.

 

 

I found this F5 Solution doc http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/8000/700/sol8719.html

 

 

As mentioned therein, "bigpipe cli hostname lookup enable" command would help besides setting system preference using GUI. I see the lookup is disabled on my F5. The consequences of enabling this lookup is given in the doc. However for day today management, I think this lookup is helpful. Otherwise one needs to resolve it externally.
