Question #: 9
Topic #: 1
How can the BIG-IP Administrator tell when anunlicensed modulehas been provisioned?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

The BIG-IP system has built-in licensing enforcement.
If an administrator provisions a module that the device isnot licensedto run, the system will still allow the provisioning action to occurinitially, but the system detects the mismatch and displays an alert.
What actually happens:
* The GUI places awarning bannerin theupper-left cornerlabeled something similar to:"Provisioning Warning"
* This appears immediately after provisioning a module that is not included in the active license.
* The system remains in an "inconsistent state" until the module is disabled again or the license is updated.
This is the visual cue BIG-IP uses to indicate that a module was provisioned without valid licensing.
Why the other options are incorrect:
A). "A BIG-IP does not allow unlicensed modules to be provisioned."
* Not true. BIG-IPdoesallow provisioning, but warns afterward.
B). "A warning will appear when provisioning an unlicensed module."
* The warning doesnotappear during the provisioning step itself.
* It appearsafter provisioning, in the main GUI, as a system banner.
