Symptoms

When a UCS file with ZebOS.conf is restored, the running configuration for the routing protocols (ZebOS) does not get refreshed/reloaded with the configuration from ZebOS.conf in the UCS file.

Impact

Without any warning to indicate that the desired configuration from the restored ZebOS.conf is not the running config, there would be unintended network related misconfiguration

Conditions

The ZebOS.conf file in the UCS file has a different configuration settings from that of the running configuration for the routing protocols in ZebOS.

Workaround

Restart tmrouted.

Fix Information

The tmrouted is restarted whenever a UCS file is restored in the BIG-IP system. The routing protocols will pick the changes from the ZebOS.conf restored from the UCS file.
