Impact

Conditions

Attaching PEM policy with PEM iRule action that contains a RULE_INIT event.

Force mcpd to reload the BIG-IP configuration. To do so, follow the steps in K13030: Forcing the mcpd process to reload the BIG-IP configuration :: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13030.

Fix Information
