Bug ID 1069529: "Appliance Mode" UI control intermittently will revert your selection back to its configured state when enabling or disabling.

Last Modified: Apr 28, 2025

Affected Product(s):
F5OS Velos(all modules)

Fixed In:
F5OS-A 1.1.0, F5OS-A 1.0.1

Opened: Dec 21, 2021

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

On the SYSTEM SETTINGS/General screen for the rSeries appliance, the "Appliance Mode" Enable/Disable radio button choice will revert back to its configured state when you're attempting to change the configuration prior to saving it.

Impact

If you attempt to either enable or disable Appliance Mode and the screen does a periodic polling refresh at the moment you make your desired selection, your selection will be reverted back to the actual current configuration state for Appliance Mode.

Conditions

The Enable/Disable radio button for Appliance Mode will undo your preferred selection when the screen does a periodic poll in the background to refresh state information that is displayed on the SYSTEM SETTINGS/General screen.

Workaround

The impact is intermittent and only occurs at the precise moment the screen is refreshing its state information --- typically a 10 second interval. Appliance Mode can still be enabled or disabled via the webUI as long as it is within the window the screen is not doing a periodic refresh. Additionally, Appliance Mode can be enabled or disabled from the command line interface (CLI).

Fix Information

Periodic polling on the SYSTEM SETTINGS/General screen for rSeries appliances will be disabled or removed.
