Bug ID 473415: ASM Standalone license has to include URL and HTML Rewrite

Last Modified: Sep 13, 2023

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP APM, ASM, Install/Upgrade(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
11.5.3, 11.5.4, 11.5.5, 11.5.6, 11.5.7, 11.5.8, 11.5.9, 11.5.10, 11.6.0, 12.1.0 HF1, 12.1.0 HF2, 12.1.1 HF1, 12.1.1 HF2, 12.1.2 HF1, 12.1.2 HF2

Opened: Jul 29, 2014

Severity: 3-Major

Related Article: K93511901

Symptoms

After an upgrade to 11.6.0, the system now reports 'URI Translation (Not Licensed)', yet the license package has not changed. There was no issue when running 11.4.1 with an ASM Standalone license and using the URL Rewrite functionality with URI Translation (under Local Traffic :: Profiles :: Services :: Rewrite).

Impact

An ASM Standalone license generated for 11.6.0 does not include ltm_rewrite_uri. Therefore, regardless of what is configured in a rewrite profile, the profile is inoperative when assigned to a virtual server.

Conditions

This occurs when the following conditions are met: -- Running 11.6.0. -- ASM Standalone license. -- URL Rewrite functionality with URI Translation.

Workaround

None available.

Fix Information

In this release, ltm_rewrite_html and ltm_rewrite_url are enabled when mod_asm is enabled, so the system functions as expected for URL Rewrite functionality with URI Translation operations.
