upgrade the F5 LTM
Hi team, I need to upgrade my f5 LTM physical box. what are the essentials measures/pre-checks i should take up in order to upgrade this appliance.
Greetings,
We have a fairly comprehensive Update & Upgrade Operations Guide for BIG-IP that covers a lot of different situations here:
BIG-IP hardware and VE platforms
BIG-IP systems
BIG-IP VIPRION and vCMP systems
BIG-IP cloud platforms
Upgrade chapters 13 through 20 for BIG-IP Cloud platforms make use of third-party cloud provider template technologies. The cloud providers and the third-party automation tools provider may update or revise their template features, and specific steps in the articles may change without our knowledge. F5 Support does not provide support for deploying or troubleshooting the templates themselves. You should first consider using one of the upgrade methods described in chapters 5 through 8 of this guide. You may use the upgrade chapters 13 through 20 under the following conditions:
BIG-IP on AWS
BIG-IP on Microsoft Azure
BIG-IP on GCP
Automation
Network Access VPN clients
F5 SSL Orchestrator
