Upgrade bigip15.1.x to 17.1.x, the AFM Protocol Security was installed with PI update file pi_updates_15.1.0-20230301.1045.im
This is not a workaround, but rather a cautionary note to consider before performing an upgrade. 1. Deploy a newer version of PI update file prior to the upgrade Ex: pi_updates_15.1.0-20230301.1045.im to pi_updates_15.1.0-20250324.1115 or Latest. 2. Then proceed with an upgrade to v17.1.2.1. Workaround - 2 ========== 1. Create ucs 2. Modify bigip.conf file in ucs using https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K13830181 3. Remove below signature's lines >> Re-packaged as ucs microsoft_windows_dns_server_integer_overflow_1 4. Load sys config default 4. Load the modified ucs 5. Deploy newer IM package.
