Fix Information

F5 Application Connector Proxy now supports "." in the Node Name field provided it is not the first character in the string and also in the instance ID field. The following regular expression is utilized to determine valid instanceID: /^[a-zA-Z0-9-_][a-zA-Z0-9-._]*$/ and valid node names are determined using the following regex - /^[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9-._]*$/
