Bug ID 2131225: Unclear Actions Displayed with L7 Profiles in Rule Creation

Last Modified: Apr 27, 2026

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

Fixed In:
21.0.0.1

Opened: Oct 12, 2025

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

When creating a simple L7 profile and adding rules with specific actions (e.g., "Enable" + select "decompression" at "client accepted"), the actions are displayed unclearly with placeholders such as {{vm.getCapitalizedLabel(vm.action.action)}} instead of the expected action names.

Impact

This issue confuses administrators, as it displays unclear placeholders instead of specific actions, potentially leading to misconfigurations and delayed troubleshooting.

Conditions

Occurs when creating an L7 profile, adding a rule with custom options (e.g., "Match all of the following conditions: Enable + select decompression at client accepted"), and saving the rule.

Workaround

Monitor release notes and timelines for the fixed version. Plan updates as per the release schedule to resolve the issue effectively.

Fix Information

The issue is resolved by updating the actionText.controller.js file. The placeholders displaying {{vm.getCapitalizedLabel(vm.action.action)}} were replaced with the actual action labels. The fix is available in the patched version. Follow-up with support for patch application.
