TurboFlex & i5800 & AFM

[S_Pollok]

I am provisioning an i5800 I have set up the vCMP guest and two hosts. I am trying to provision the AFM firewall on one of the hosts but I get this error "The provision module afm requires TurboFlex profile turboflex-security." It seems as if the i5800 should have TurboFlex but there is no tab for it in the provisioning. So my questions are can I provison the AFM with out the TurboFlex and why am I not seeing any TurboFlex CLI comands or GUI options ?

Hi  

This is not configured at the level of the vCMP host, but at the level of the guest. This is how it worked in my i5800 vCMP Guest.

Go to System ›› Resource Provisioning : TurboFlex and enable "turboflex-security-v1".

Next go to System ›› Resource Provisioning : Module Allocation and enable "Advanced Firewall (AFM)"

Beware there is a bug in 15.1.3 and 16.x:

• K35135904: Error message: "profile.Features is undefined" via turboflex on GUI after upgraded to 15....
• Bug ID 1020129: Turboflex page in GUI reports 'profile.Features is undefined' error

But you can still change it via TMSH

Hi Daniel Thanks for my problem was the options only appears after the initial setup has been completed, you can not configure it from the setup wizard.

For the sake of completeness. You can have multiple guests and you can assign different Turboflex profiles to each guest.
