TMM crashes while running traffic that uses AFM Firewall policies.
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
-- Update IP geolocation database file to the latest version. -- Configure AFM policies with logging enabled. -- Run traffic which hits the AFM policies and triggers logging.
Revert to using the previously working version of the IP-geolocation file. For more information, see K11176: Downloading and installing updates to the IP geolocation database :: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K11176#restore.
The BIG-IP system now validates the region/country strings returned by the geolocation database for IP addresses used in the traffic.
