BIGIP Doesnt show mirror ip in show cm device.

I have 2 lab devices in an ha pair, everything is fine but connection mirror wont come up.

Looks like bug behavior as of now:

From Active: root@(bigip1)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) show cm device

  • Hello David Fish!

    Can you double check the connection mirror IP on both units?

    tmsh list cm device mirror-ip

    And can you check the mirror service on both units?

    tmsh show sys ha-mirror

    And last but not least, are your virtual-servers mirroring the connection?

    Cheers! Rafael
