Symptoms

BIG-IP may fail to update configuration of a virtual server when disabling or enabling spanning on the virtual address.

Impact

Disabling or enabling spanning on a virtual address has no effect on the virtual-server configuration. Depending on the configuration, virtual server may or may not forward the traffic when expected.

Conditions

Spanning is disabled or enabled on a virtual address.

Workaround

Enable/Disable spanning together with changing a traffic-group (both options have to be changed simultaneously): > modify ltm virtual-address 0.0.0.0 traffic-group traffic-group-2 spanning disabled > modify ltm virtual-address 0.0.0.0 traffic-group traffic-group-1 spanning enabled

Fix Information

None
