Repace standalone licence with different module BigIP VE

Hi,

 

Our client currently using BigIP VE with LTM standalone module license, recently they decided to add AWAF functionality, and since AWAF standalone license covers all the needed functionality we want to just swap standalone license keys - from LTM to AWAF. Have anyone done such a thing? Is there a procedure for it?

 

  • Hi Alex2,

    to get the new license you may want to contact your distributor or F5 sales contact. They "may" have a special discount for you in the case that you end your LTM license earlier than expected...

    Once you received the new license key, then simply re-license your unit(s) with the new license key. You dont need to reinstall your units and rebuild your configuration...
