 I don’t have enough information to say why you might not be seeing addresses getting released. Do you mean your DHCP server shows all the IP’s are still leased-out, or are you just not seeing them get reused? The DHCP server may just be cycling through the available range before reissuing IP’s.

 

If the situation persists, to debug it I will ask for a QKVIEW with debug logs from APM-DHCP (can be enabled in iApp) and a packet capture (tcpdump). You can contact your F5 sales team to facilitate.
