Hello, I came across a scenario where an F5 device has LTM and ASM as enabled but the ASM license was an evaluation license. My question is what will happen if the ASM Eval license expires but I still have a valid LTM license? According to SOL4679, the BIG-IP system stops processing traffic when the license expires. But what will happen is ONLY the ASM expires but LTM is still a valid license? Will it stop processing traffic for ASM virtual servers? Will the ASM policies become inactive? Would be nice to know. Thanks.399Views0likes1CommentError 51133, F5 registration key is not compatible with the detected platform - This platform, "Z100", cannot be activated with this regist
Tried to stick in a trial copy whilst someone else sorts the paperwork, had to re-grab a key as my colleague didn't have the original email to hand, but must have got the wrong trial edition or some such for the license.

Hi all does anyone know how long it takes for eval licenses to be emailed? i have now registered 2 accounts and as of yet (about 15 - 20 minutes later) not received a single email with a download link or license file? is this right? Regards Phil Waller208Views0likes1Comment
