Symptoms

A BIG-IP DNS system configured with an iRule that makes use of the command nodes_up in its ip_address :: port version might lead to a crash.

Impact

Conditions

- BIG-IP DNS iRule processing traffic with nodes_up IP/Port command. - IP/Port references an invalid LTM virtual server. - Client sends requests to the BIG-IP DNS wide IP.

Workaround

Specify correct IP/Port in the nodes_up iRule command

Fix Information

TMM no longer crashes when using an incorrect IP/Port in a nodes_up BIG-IP DNS iRule.
