Last Modified: Sep 13, 2023

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

Known Affected Versions:
12.1.0, 12.1.1, 12.1.2, 12.1.3, 12.1.3.1, 12.1.3.2, 12.1.3.3, 13.0.0, 13.0.0 HF1, 13.0.0 HF2, 13.0.0 HF3, 13.0.1, 13.1.0, 13.1.0.1, 13.1.0.2, 13.1.0.3, 13.1.0.4, 13.1.0.5

Fixed In:
14.0.0, 13.1.0.6, 12.1.3.4

Opened: Feb 06, 2018

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

The TMM may later crash after a configuration change done under load if the HTTP/2 profile is used.

Impact

Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.

Conditions

A configuration change occurs. The configuration change is large enough, or the TMM load large enough that the change is not synchronous. The change involves a HTTP/2 profile. Data traffic progresses through a partially initialized HTTP/2 virtual server, potentially causing a later crash.

Workaround

There is no workaround at this time.

Fix Information

Large configuration changes to the TMM involving a HTTP/2 profile will no longer potentially cause a TMM crash.
