unable to activate aws hourly license

Hi, Try the following to see if that resolves your issue.

When deploying hourly billing BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) in AWS, ensure that eth0 (used for management access) can access the internet.

Associate a public IP to BIG-IP VE management ip (eth0)

• In single NIC deployments, when configuring the instance details, in the Auto-assign Public IP list, select Enable

   

• In multi-NIC deployments, associate an Elastic IP to the management NIC within a few minutes of deployment, or associate it later and restart the instance

   

These steps are required so that BIG-IP VE can be licensed with F5 when it boots when using version 12.1 and beyond. If desired, you can remove these public IP addresses after the instance is licensed.
