Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP TMOS
Fixed In:
13.1.0, 12.1.3.1
Opened: Apr 18, 2017 Severity: 3-Major
The LCD on BIG-IP iSeries appliances must detect whether the system is in IPv4 or IPv6 context before retrieving the gateway from the Host via REST. If two gateways are configured (IPv4 and IPv6) only whichever is first in the list is returned via REST and will be set on the Host.
Incorrect gateway retrieval can create bad configs which would impact traffic resulting in failed ping attempts, destination unreachable errors, request timeouts, etc.
If two gateways are configured (IPv4 and IPv6).
No workaround at this time.
LCD code now retrieves the correct gateway when switching between IPV4 and IPV6 context.
