Last Modified: Jul 12, 2023

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IQ AppIQ(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
6.1.0, 7.0.0, 7.0.0.1, 7.0.0.2, 7.1.0, 7.1.0.1, 7.1.0.2, 7.1.0.3, 7.1.6, 7.1.6.1, 7.1.7, 7.1.7.1, 7.1.7.2, 7.1.8, 7.1.8.1, 7.1.8.2, 7.1.8.3, 7.1.8.4, 7.1.8.5, 7.1.9, 7.1.9.7, 7.1.9.8, 7.1.9.9

Opened: Jul 11, 2019

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

Due to differences between BIG-IP versions 13.x and 14.x in the AVR Profile, using one AVR profile in BIG-IQ for both fails.

Impact

On discovery: When discovering a 14.x device that was upgraded from 13.x or prior version, a conflict is raised and the user has to choose by which version to keep the profile. On deployment: Depends on how a profile is discovered, when deployed back to a different BIG-IP version, the deployment will fail.

Conditions

Having mix of BIG-IPs in versions 14.x and previous versions (12.1 or 13.x), or upgrading to 14.x.

Workaround

Keep different profiles for the v14.x versions and for the previous versions.

Fix Information

None
