Cirrusshould set hostname first on new F5 appliance before running setup utility?
hi , we are going to setup a new F5 appliance. I have one question regarding device certificate, should we set hostname first on new F5 appliance before running setup utility because the host name will be used in the device certificate enrollment? Please advise, thanks.

Herman2024 I believe this guide can still be followed for the most part and it does recommend that you configure the hostname of the device activating and licensing the device.
