Fixed In:
14.1.0, 14.0.0.3, 13.1.0.8

Opened: Mar 20, 2018

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Network map loading time is directly proportional to the number of profiles/policies associated with a virtual server. When there are a significant number, the network map can take many tens of seconds to load. When there are fewer associated profiles/policies, loading time is shorter. For example, consider a configuration that contains virtual servers with a large number of associated profiles/policies. In the following example config, the virtual server has two associated profiles. The time to load the network map page increases with each additional profile/policy. # tmsh list ltm virtual vs ltm virtual virtual server { creation-time 2018-03-06:18:27:53 destination 0.0.0.0:any ip-protocol tcp last-modified-time 2018-03-06:18:27:53 mask any profiles { myhttp { } tcp { } } rules { myrule } source 0.0.0.0/0 translate-address disabled translate-port disabled vlans { socks-tunnel } vs-index 5 }

Impact

It takes tens of seconds to load the network map page. It takes time to load modules in GUI operations.

Conditions

-- Navigate to Local Traffic >> Network Map in the BIG-IP Configuration utility. -- The configuration contains a significantly large number of profiles/policies associated with the virtual server.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

The data loading performance was improved to load the page faster.
