In version 12.0, a more strict validation is being applied to LTM Policy rule names. Rule names must consist of a specific set of allowed characters. Allowed characters are: a-z A-Z 0-9 _ . / : % -
During upgrade from a pre-12.0 versions to 12.0 or beyond, pre-existing LTM Policy names which contained disallowed characters will have each disallowed character automatically changed to an underscore (_).
Pre-12.0 LTM Policies with names that have characters outside of the allowed set.
Migration will occur automatically.
