BIG-IP can only use the netHSM that is created at the BigIP.
BIG-IP user cannot reuse the pre-existing netHSM key that is not created at BigIP.
When netHSM key is created from a non-BIG-IP client.
People need to recreate a new netHSM key from the BIG-IP connecting to the netHSM.
We added this function as a new feature to the BIG-IP user. With this fix, people just need to specify the key label for the pre-existing netHSM key to install/import the key to bigip. The new key will just have the same name as the key label.
