Symptoms

Tcl error in /var/log/ltm. Tcl error: bad option "serverside": must be require or preclude while executing "constrain NTLM require clientside {HTTP} serverside {CONNPOOL} preclude FTP

Impact

If you are using TMSH to configure virtual server and NTLM profile, validation/constraint is not performed/enforced.

Conditions

Virtual server using the NTLM profile. Only logged when the first virtual server is created or when TMM restarts.

Workaround

This is a benign, cosmetic error. There should be no functional impact to the system.

Fix Information

Fixed the unexpected error message encountered and added validation when creating a virtual server with an NTLM profile.
