  • not sure what platform is. 34 bit CPU platform does not support v11.

     

     

    upgrade instruction is in release note. any current supported version could be good.

  • Thanks nitaas ... may you tell me the upgrade procedure step by step 9.2.3 build 142.0 OS version to 10.x version ?
  • Upgrading from versions earlier than 9.3.x

     

    You cannot roll forward a configuration directly to this version from BIG-IP version 4.x or from BIG-IP versions 9.0.x through 9.2.x. You must be running software version 9.3.x, 9.4.x, 9.6.x, or 10.x. For details about upgrading to those versions, see the release notes for the associated release.
