Bug ID 1756393: While creating an IPS profile system, the check values change to default values from 'Don't Inspect'

Last Modified: May 04, 2025

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP AFM(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
17.1.1.3, 17.1.1.4, 17.1.2, 17.1.2.1

Opened: Nov 27, 2024

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

When creating the IPS profile, all system check values are set to 'Don’t Inspect’. If the value is not modified, or the value is not created during profile creation, then the non-modified value is changed to the default value without a warning message.

Impact

While creating a profile the user expects that traffic will not be inspected. However, due to the change in default action value, the traffic is inspected when the changes are submitted to the system.

Conditions

Create a new IPS profile and see the SYSTEM CHECKS.

Workaround

Set the value of the SYSTEM CHECKS action to 'Don’t Inspect' after submitting the changes to the system.

Fix Information

None
