F5 BIG_IP 3900 (C106) - Software Upgrade Advisor not working
Hello, I need to upgrade a 3900(C106) from version 11.5.4 HF2 to 12.1.3.7 I have uploaded the QKView to the iHealth tool to perform a Software Upgrade advisor but it prompts the following message: "You are already running the latest version". The menu to select to version to be upgraded to does not appear I have checked this model can be upgraded to this version in the compatibility matrix, in fact, in the Diagnostics section of the Status at the iHealth the following Upgrade options appear. Upgrade Options: 11.5.4.HF4 (hotfix) 11.5.9 (stability release) 12.1.3.7 (latest release) Any idea why this is happening? Thanks

As it is aware that version (BIG-IP 15.1) of the existing software used on our F5 devices ( i2600 ) will expire after year 2024. We are planning software upgrade to keep equipment in our environment are actively supported by product vendor. When checking from F5 web site, there are two upstream version 16.1 and 17.1 respectively. I would like to check ( in terms of viability and stability and the support of JSON format for ASM policies ), may I know which version (16.1 or 17.1) would be recommended? Thanks.
