What happens if I only enable ASM in BIG-IP Under System > Resource Provisioning

Hi;

 

Let's say that I have a Big-IP device licensed for LTM and ASM. However, only the ASM module is enabled under System > Resource provisioning with a level of nominal.

I know that in this case, you can have a pool of only one member, but just to double check my information, I want to ask this questions:

 

Is my understanding above incorrect, and in this case, the system does load balance to multiple pool members, or I should enable the LTM module for this to happen?

 

Kindly

Wasfi

    The LTM module must not be provisioned to enable the LTM features.

    Additionally, the current AWAF license (successor of the ASM license) integrates many LTM features: https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K14231234
