[Workaound] User required to manually start EPI and VPN in browsers
After upgrading to version 16.1.4 the users need to manually start the End Point Inspector and the Web Initiated VPN by clicking on a "Start" button. This is describe in this KB. I created a user-common.js that will automatically click on the start button for the user. However, please note that this workround works as of 3rd of November 2023, but might stop working in the future in different browsers. In order to activate the workaround you need to have an Access Policy of the Moden type. Then go to Customizations -> Advanced -> Acces Profiles -> <Your Access Profile> -> Common Add the followinf to the file user-common.js define(["require", "exports", "apmui"], function (require, exports, apmui_1) { "use strict"; Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true }); var app = apmui_1.App.get(); app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.EPS_CHECK_PROGRESS, function (_, store) { var btns = document.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button"); if (btns.length == 0) { console.log("Failed to find button..."); return; } btns[0].click(); }); app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.DIALOG_OPEN, function (_, store) { setTimeout(function () { var dialog = document.getElementById("sna_auto_start_not_supported"); if (dialog == null) { console.log("Didn't find the right dialog"); return; } var btns = dialog.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button"); if (btns.length == 0) { console.log("Didn't find the start button"); return; } btns[0].click(); }, 100); }); }); If you have a better solution to this, please let me know. This was just what I came up with when asked by customers that the new "Start" button had created confusion among their users.
Bug ID 1182613 - New Workaround
I found a new workaround for the following bug, that fills up /var/log dir: Bug ID 1182613: BIG-IP Version 15.1.8 installed as a tenant on CX410 or rSeries systems see continuous 'Unable to Notify Tenant stats' log in /var/log/ltm Instead of requesting and installing an engineering hotfix to address the problem, I suggest to simply add a log filter with the following details: - Severity: Warning - Source: all - Message ID:01d50005 - Log Publisher: None Hope that helps to address the issue.
