The links for ve download are broken or not working properly.
Can I use the trial license for any version of VE big ip?
VE keys will work on various versions. F5 supports at least v13 in all cloud providers but preferably I would go with the latest 14.1.2.x version for stability or 15.1.x for latest and greatest. If you need features found in the 15.1 release, then go with the latest 15.1.x.x release.
Hi, The trials page is not working, someone could confirm if it is my problem only please, the request button is disabled.

We are on working on a longer term solution for those who are facing this issue.
In many cases the f5 github templates for AWS cloudformation etc. are the best option than directly doing it with images https://github.com/F5Networks .

Hi,
Just a quick question. I successfully installed both BigIQ and BigIP on my esxi.
I applied and activated the license of BiqIQ and then put the license of BigIP on license management of BigIQ to be assigned to my BigIP vms.
When i try to assign and activate the license to BigIP via BigIQ i got an error.
Error on server request
The system returned an unexpected error (400 Bad Request). Unable to contact 192.168.100.101. Please check the provided credentials.
No problem on the network connection and credentials as i can login to BigIP via gui and ssh. Is this feature supported on VE Trial License? If not can i request to revoke the assigned trial license to me so that i can redo my lab. Thanks.
Hello @Jfrancisco1 ,
This should be supported with the VE trial License. I found this KB article which should help you resolve your issue.

XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX(BIG-IQ Data Collection Device)
Need to know what is LTM per app Ve 3 instances?
next license Service scaling VE
Hi @ragunath154 you'll want to re-request the licenses and pick a regular VE, not the Per App VE. It's a bit confusing but all of the guidance above is meant for the full Virtual Edition (VE).
